The technical high mountain boot is the new reference for expeditions to 8000m
peaks, but also for arctic crossings and extreme missions in very cold environments.
Extreme lightness, low volume, precise and comfortable fit and maximum freedom
of movement. Developed and tested in collaboration with extreme mountaineer Nirmal
Purjia during his winter ascent of K2.
- The first expedition boot with integrated thermal system
- The only 100% waterproof high mountain boot
- Discoverable thanks to RECCO reflector - more safety

to increase comfort and durability.
- INSOLATION
Carbon Tech 3 SL, made of three layers: the first in perforated EVA for maximum
comfort, the second in Aerogel® for maximum thermal insulation and the
third in carbon fibre for maximum stability and lightness.
- EXTERNAL SHELL
Shell 8000
The shell consists of different layers
- water-repellent microfibre with high mechanical strength: 50% recycled nylon
from the primary material, 50% PU.
- an insulating felt and aluminium foil and WinTherm made of 80% recycled
PET for active thermal insulation.
