The Aku Superalp GTX is a hiking shoe that remains comfortable even on long tours or with heavy luggage. The Italian shoe specialist AKU has developed the IMS3-Exoskeleton sole for this purpose. The lower part consists of an outer skeleton made of polyurethane, which rises at the back to surround and protect the heel. This provides optimal support and stability while walking. The asymmetrical structure, with a wider inner section and a polyurethane elevation, offers support to the midfoot and prevents overloading and pronation. The upper part of the midsole features a lightweight polyurethane inner section that provides cushioning and high pressure resistance. The Vibram sole ensures perfect grip. The upper material of the Superalp GTX is also impressive: the suede leather, combined with the integrated Gore-Tex membrane, offers breathability and weather protection. A rubber rand protects against debris and impacts. The Aku Superalp GTX is ideal for long-distance hikers, multi-day tours, trekking, pilgrimage routes, and anyone traveling with a tent, gear, and provisions.

Der hochwertig verarbeitete Superalp GTX macht in weglosem, anspruchsvollem B/C-Gelände einen guten Job und bietet hier angenehmen Tragekomfort. Bei längeren Flachetappen wie beispielsweise Forstwegen rollt die relativ steife Sohle nicht so gut ab. Aber dafür ist der Schuh auch nicht gemacht.
Tolle und überraschende Kombi aus super belüftetem und flexiblem Oberschuh sowie ziemlich steifer, grober Sohle, Abrollen ist nur im Mittelfuß möglich, man geht trotzdem nicht wie ein Roboter! Leisten ist neutral bis breit, Anfänger mit schmalem Fuß konnten sich unsicher fühlen, obwohl der Halt stets super ist. Der tolle Schaft passte sich zudem jedem Fuß an. Heimlicher Redaktionsliebling!
