The low cut version of the Makra Pro GTX - the Makra Pro Low GTX - is an approach shoe designed for challenging terrain. But what actually makes a good approach shoe? Versatility is key. The Makra Pro Low GTX performs well on a variety of surfaces: from paved paths to forests and meadows, and even rocky fields. Comfort, stability, and flexibility play important roles. Its lightweight yet particularly stable midsole is made of PU and EVA: the oversized PU heel provides perfect cushioning, while a reinforcing PU foam wedge in the heel area supports an ideal rolling motion. EVA in the forefoot area ensures precision during the initial step - and the exclusive Vibram "Makra outsole" offers excellent grip. A feature of the Makra family is the optimized Ghilly lacing that extends to the toe area - the laces are threaded through textile loops. This design provides good support even in the front area and in a mid-cut model, ensuring a stable fit in the shoe. Thanks to the waterproof GORE-TEX membrane, feet stay dry even in unpredictable weather. Perwanger leather is robust, breathable, and durable. A material combination that impresses across the board.

Source: Digitec GalaxusAs is often the case with Hanwag, the Makra Pro also has an asymmetrical, soft tongue. This allows it to adapt even better to the foot, which is supported by the easy-glide lacing and the snug, softly padded shaft.
