The Pebax® foam plate of the Impulso technology sits in an oversized EVA midsole geometry, providing a lightweight, durable platform that cradles the foot. As validated by CeRiSM, this construction increases the shoe’s lateral stability when moving fast downhill or on uneven terrain. The midfoot Support Band and the arch support of the underfoot also contribute to enhancing the overall stability.
The midsole unit features Tecnica's exclusive Impulso technology that combines the benefits of a high-rebound EVA and a fulllength Pebax® foam plate, delivering superior cushioning, explosive energy return and long-lasting elasticity. In addition, the exclusive Flex Groove design of the outsole provides targeted flex points, enhancing flexibility and improving forward motion.
The Agate has been designed around a gender-specific anatomical last to carefully match the more triangular shape, lower volume and narrower heel bone of women's feet. In addition, the underfoot has been fine-tuned to provide support to women's higher foot arch. The comfortable anatomical design has been approved by focus groups with the W2W initiative and scientifically validated by CeRiSM.
UPPER TPU FILM: The upper is protected by layers of TPU film laminated to the polyamide mesh for additional durability at critical areas, such as the heel, toe cap, and medial and lateral zones.
EVA EXOSHELL CAGE: Foot and midsole protection from rocks and scree is provided by the durable external EVA Exoshell Cage.
BACKLOOP: The little loop helps the wearer to slide the foot in and out of the shoes effortlessly and can be used to hang them on your backpack or to the climbing harness.
ORTHOLITE® FOOTBED: The anatomically-shaped Ortholite® footbed is highly breathable and provides superior comfort and long-lasting performance.
GORE-TEX® EXTENDED COMFORT LINING: The Gore-Tex® Extended Comfort membrane delivers durable waterproof and breathable weather protection to ensure that your feet stay dry and comfortable all day long and all year round.
VIBRAM® MEGAGRIP™ OUTSOLE: The Vibram® Megagrip outsole is made of a high-performance compound that offers unparalleled grip on dry and wet terrain. This compound is also best in its class for durability and ground adaptation.
