Aramid fibre material invented by American chemist of Polish origin Stephanie Kwolek, used in the production of, among other things: hiking and climbing clothing. It is characterised by lightness, stiffness, high impact and crack resistance and high temperatures. It is approx. It is about 5 times more impact-resistant than carbon fibre and does not conduct electricity (it is an insulator).

A waterproof membrane that effectively keeps out water and snow, and offers a basic level of breathability, sufficient to ensure comfort for less intense activities.

A trekking boot sole characterised by good durability and high grip on difficult terrain. The special tread layout helps to roll the foot during technical approaches.

A special binding found in some models of mountain boots. In a system taken from climbing boots, the binding extends right to the top of the boot. This allows the shoe to be adjusted very precisely in difficult terrain.

Reinforced heel counter in trekking boots from Salewa. It ensures that the shoe holds the foot well, has better stability and is more resistant to torsion.

Lace-up eyelets to ensure proper lacing to fit the shoe to the foot. The eyelets work as you step.

Heel stabiliser technology is a stable element made of TPU that stabilises the heels, thus providing better grip to the rearfoot.

A special Salewa-branded construction that connects the shoe's instep to the sole and heel via a steel cable or strong webbing. Provides foot support and stability to the shoe on the trail.
