adidas Terrex Free Hiker Walking Boots
Hiking has never felt so good. Every ingredient in these boots aims for comfort on long-distance hikes. The sock-like build and adidas Primeknit upper hug your foot for an adaptive, snug feel with every step. The Torsion bar provides a stable, controlled and natural flex of the midsole and foot.
Water Repellent PrimeKnit
Primeknit uppers will encase each foot in breathable comfort. Supplying flexible support, Primeknit increases ventilation and eradicates the build-up of sweat which is unavoidable during exercise. Sweat and moisture are wicked away from the feet leaving you feeling fresh and ready to clock up the miles in extreme comfort. The seamless, sock-like construction constructions provide an irritation-free fit, because we recognise how rubbing and blisters can ruin your day. Light in weight and designed with motion in mind, Primeknit adapts to the changing shape of your foot through the gait cycle. The breathable Primknit construction is also highly water resistant and works to protect the feet during light showers. The ultra-thin film coats the upper to repel water; keeping you dry and comfortable in a variety of bad weather conditions. Abrasion-resistant reinforcement adorn the upper and ensure a trail worthy state; improving support and durability, they help to anchor you to the midsole and reduce in-shoe slippage so that you can enjoy smooth, distraction-free strides. The moulded TPU toe cap exists to ensures toe protection against rouged and loose terrain whilst a heel cap promotes a natural fit; allowing for optimal movement of the Achilles while still providing support. Lastly, padding around the heel and ankles ensures an abundance of cushioning that ensures long-lasting comfort.
Boost Midsole
adidas take cushioning to new heights, with their ultra-responsive midsole: Boost. Tiny TPU capsules are moulded together to form a platform that is different to standard, solid foams; absorbing energy and then expelling it back out for a bounce-like effect. This energy return technology reduces the use of superfluous muscle power, diminishing fatigue and enhancing performance; keeping you going for longer. The plush, responsive cushioning will spare your joints as you sprint down onto hard, unforgiving concrete. Boost also manages to maintain its special function and bounce in conditions as low as -20 degrees, making it a reliable, durable and hard-to-beat midsole. Completing the midsole is a torsion system that exist to provide protection, control and an easy heel-to-toe transition.
Continental Rubber Outsole
The Continental Rubber compound offers maximum traction on a variety of different surfaces. The highly durable compound allows you to grip the ground beneath in both wet and dry conditions to reduce the chance of you slipping. Delivering optimal traction on varied surfaces, the continental outsole uses the ideal combination of specialised rubbers and design. Ensuring the perfect level of grip. the Terrex Free Hiker provides adaptable traction to tackle any rural area. A strong lug pattern works equally well on both hard and smooth or soft and loose surfaces to ensure optimum, multisurface grip.
