The Ascender Mid HT is a hiking boot for long distances with heavy backpacks. The HH-Arch-Brace shank system – an embedded thermoplastic rigidity bar to guide and stabilise the foot – reduces the risk of injury caused by unnecessary movements. The 5D-printed upper structure reduces weight. A lightweight EVA midsole provides cushioning and stability, while the treaded outsole with multi-directional traction offers optimal grip. The waterproof construction ensures that water is repelled off all surfaces, while recycled materials reduce the environmental impact.
