The Aku Superalp V-Light GTX is a hiking shoe that remains comfortable even on particularly long tours or when carrying a heavy backpack. To keep it lightweight, the hiking boot features an upper made of recycled microfiber, which is 30 percent lighter than suede. Inside, a GORE-TEX membrane ensures dry feet, regardless of the weather or terrain. A surrounding rubber protective rand keeps stones and debris at bay, while the Vibram sole provides the right traction for outdoor paths. The sole's construction, with a midsole and insole, ensures perfect foot comfort by supporting the midfoot, preventing overexertion, and cushioning impacts with its polyurethane inner layer. The Aku Superalp V-Light GTX is ideal for long-distance hikes, multi-day trips, trekking tours, and anyone who carries their own tent, gear, and supplies.
