Arc’teryx Lanceert Technische Schoenenlijn

Arc’teryx heeft zojuist bekend gemaakt dat zij een geheel nieuwe schoenenlijn op de markt brengen, als aanvulling op de bestaande innovatieve kleding, rugzakken, handschoenen en klimgordels. De schoenen – de Bora² mid-cut en de Alpha² low-cut – zijn lichte wandelschoenen en worden gekenmerkt door een tweedelige constructie bestaande uit een ‘losse’ isolerende binnenschoen, zonder tong en een naadloze hydrophobic (Gore-Tex) buitenschoen. De buitenschoen heeft meer weg van een skischoen constructie, dan van een traditionele schoenconstructie. Door de tong weg te laten wordt het gewicht en het benodigde materiaal verminderd en het ademend vermogen verhoogd. “From the very beginning, our goal was to bring a fresh perspective to footwear that enhances the overall mountain experience. By incorporating techniques like lamination, we developed shoes that offer unprecedented durability, comfort and precision performance in the most breathable mountain footwear construction on the market,” aldus Federico Sbrissa, de footwear product manager. De gehele lijn zal verkrijgbaar zijn in het voorjaar van 2015. De adviesprijzen zijn: Alpha² FL GTW €250, Alpha FL GTX €200, Alpha FL €175, Bora² Mid GTX €300 en de Bora Mid GTX €250. De binnenschoenen: Liner GTX Low €75, Liner GTX Mid €80 en de Liner GTX Ins. Mid € 85.

I have practiced a multitude of sports since my youth to the present. My first sports as a child were judo and athletics. Cycling, hiking, mountain biking, kyokushin karate, diving, baseball, golf and windsurfing, rowing and krav maga were added later.
