WanderlustProdukttests Leichte WanderschuheReleaseApril 2026

The Akron GTX loves technical climbs and rocky paths: suede and microfiber protect the foot, while the Michelin sole with climbing zone grips rock and scree. Thanks to the Add-System and long lacing, the shoe adapts perfectly and remains comfortable even on long tours. As a technical hiking shoe with robust leather, the weight is noticeably higher compared to pure lightweight hiking shoes.
