Boulder X Women’s Walking Shoes – SS24

La Sportiva Boulder X Women’s Walking Shoes

Allowing you to tackle a wide range of terrain, the versatile La Sportiva Boulder X Walking Shoes will provide a protected and smooth ride.

Suede Upper

Constructed using a suede upper, the La Sportiva Boulder X Walking shoes ensure the perfect balance of structure and stretch. Designed to provide the right amount of support for uncompromising terrains, this upper ensures a glove-like fit. The fabric conforms to the shape of the foot to provide a perfect fit that minimises in-shoe slippage; because a precise fit is necessary when out on the trails. Added leather in the full rubber rand offers maximum protection against abrasion at all times whilst rubber in the back ensures your heel is always locked in place. Lastly, an innovative lacing closure system ensures a locked-down fit for added midfoot support.

EVA Midsole

The midsole will make sure that you will constantly be in extreme comfort, and you will also have an extremely high level of protection. At the bottom of the midsole, the EVA is extremely firm and tough, which will instantly stop strong forces from reaching the sole of the foot. During climbing and crossing rocky terrain, this will allow you to take any path safely. Towards the top, the EVA is a lot softer, which will mean that the EVA in closer contact to the sole of the foot is more cushioned. As a result, you will feel a soft and springy rebound on every step that you take. There is also a 2mm EVA insert found in the middle which will hold the foot firmly in place by stabilising the midsole and it will also prevent shocks from impacts.

Vibram Outsole

The highly technical outsole is designed to give you the same level of control on all types of ground. Using a Vibram outsole, the outsole will offer you incredible grip and traction. The rubber is able to form a solid connection with a wide range of surfaces, giving you a strong foundation to push off from. The deep lugs will also dig into the ground, especially if it is wet. This will anchor you to the ground, giving you a firm launchpad as well as assisting with other movements. The toe is especially effective with a specialised grip area that will give you a firm foothold when crag climbing. As you are coming to a stop, the inbuilt Impact Brake System will help this by keeping you in control when slowing down.
