PROTECTIONS:

 

AKTIV-BUND®: Offers support and hold without compression or slipping. This guarantees a perfect fit for optimal comfort.

AIR-CONDITIONING CHANNEL®: Made of thin mesh, it only covers 30% of the skin. With every step, the foot pumps the moist, warm air out and allows clean fresh air to flow in. Fresh air can circulate even in a well-fitted shoe to better regulate foot temperature.

Protected by EP1011352, AU742686, US6286151, JP4617321 patents

X-CROSS® BANDAGE: An ankle bandage knitted from an elasticated material, which stabilises the ankle and optimally supports the foot’s function.

Protected by EP1011352, US6286151, AU742686, CA2288026, JP4001714B2

AIR GUIDE®: An air conduit placed along the AirConditioning Channel® helps air flow. It insulates the shoe and allows constant ventilation, reducing the risk of blisters.

Protected by RCD EU39516-0058

AIRVENT ZONE FOR INSTEP PROTECTION: 3D knit preventing materials resting on the surface, leaving a layer of air underneath.

Protected by patent number EP1893044

TOE PROTECTOR: If you want to perform, you need to look after your toes. The asymmetric toe protector wraps the toes and absorbs pressure to prevent blisters and abrasions.

Protected by RCD EU39516-0069

LAMBERTZ-NICHOLSON™ ACHILLES TENDON PROTECTOR: Reinforcements reduce pressure on the achilles tendon area. This shock absorber acts as a buffer between the foot and the shoe to reduce pressure points and friction.

Protected by EP1562681, TR200805430 T4, AU2003292969B2, CA2505147, CN200380103010.8, JP4746322, US7681254 patents

AIRFLOW ANKLE PADS: Optimal ankle protection without sacrificing breathability.

Protected by EP1796490, ES2334691T3 , TR201000173T4, CN101083917B, RU2380008C2, CA2576918 patents

HEEL PROTECTOR: Pressure exerted on the heel can easily cause blisters. This protection reduces rubbing and helps prevent blisters forming.

Protected by RCD EU39516-0061

TRAVERSE AIRFLOW CHANNEL SYSTEM™: 3 path ventilation systems that regulates moisture and heat. It also regulates the temperature of the footbed, which is usually surrounded by the shoe. As the foot is raised, the movement allows fresh air to enter.

STRETCH BANDS: Stretch bands are strategically positioned to provide elasticity and perfect contour.

Protected by RCD EU39516-0064

ANATOMICALLY SHAPED FOOTBED: Designed with a specific right (R) and left (L) foot with an integrated Air-Conditioning Channel® system. The sole is reinforced in the stressed points such as the heel or metatarsus to improve the contact with the shoe.

Protected by RCD EU39516-0061

 

 

COMPOSITION:

 

Renewable, recyclable and biodegradable merino wool, combines all the advantages of traditional wool, synthetic fibres and cotton. It is soft, warm in the cold and cool in the heat, breathable to prevent dampness and has anti-odour properties.

XITALOFT® maintains an ideal temperature, and is robust and resistant despite its softness. It is ideal for reducing pressure against the skin.

DURAPRO® is a multifunctional hollow fibre that reduces pressure and shocks through integrated micro-air pockets.

MYTHLAN® is hypoallergenic and therefore perfectly neutral for the skin. The lightness of the microfibres offers maximum comfort.
