This shoe introduces the new Trango Ergo shape, characterized by a slimmer fit, designed to adapt perfectly to different foot shapes and guarantee precise support even on the most difficult terrain.
Thanks to the collaboration with excellent partners, La Sportiva offers a cutting-edge solution for an uncompromising experience: the gaiter is made of water-repellent, elasticized and anti-abrasion fabric, with the Vortex® closure system to protect from snow and debris, as well as safeguarding the upper lacing. The waterproof GORE-TEX Performance Comfort lining ensures protection from atmospheric agents, while the Vibram® Cube Evo sole, with SpringLug Tech technology, offers abrasion resistance, optimal protection and exceptional grip.
The Climbing Zone at the toe and the lugs with Impact Brake System® technology on the heel guarantee maximum control both in traction and braking.
