TREKKING

FORGE 2.0

THE FORGE 2.0 IS A MODERN LEATHER TREKKING BOOT WITH A WATERPROOF, BREATHABLE GORE-TEX® MEMBRANE AND ANATOMIC FIT. DESIGNED TO PROVIDE VERSATILE DURABLE SUPPORT, COMFORT AND PROTECTION, INCLUDING IN TECHNICAL TERRAINS.

COMFORTABLE SUPPORT AND VERSATILITY

GREAT FIT OUT OF THE BOX

ANATOMICAL LAST

Trekking in mountain areas involves covering long distances over rugged terrain. This requires versatile footwear that offers comfortable support, protection and durability.
The Forge’s upper is built and shaped around an anatomical last, in order to deliver a precise, comfortable fit. It holds the forefoot and heel firmly in place to provide more versatile performance in technical terrain.

SUPPORT AND VERSATILITY

SUPPORTIVE LASTING BOARD AND ESS ROCK PLATE

Sitting on top of the outsole and midsole, the Forge features a white polypropylene lasting board that increases stiffness and provides greater support in more technical terrain.
The midsole, made of compressed EVA, benefits from an additional orange ESS rock plate for protection at the forefoot.

CLASSICAL TONGUE CONSTRUCTION

EASY STEP-IN & HIKING COMFORT

The classic tongue and lacing construction is designed to allow an easier step-in, as well as a better forward-back range of motion for the ankle while walking.
This is particularly effective on long mountain descents.
