Asolo Nucleon GV GORE-TEX Walking Shoes

Lightness, flexibility and comfort: these are the keywords. With a multitude of exceptional features, the Nucleon GV is perfect for light hiking and summer-to-winter walking.

Suede with GORE-TEX Extended Comfort Upper

Constructed using a suede leather upper, the Asolo Nucleon GV offer a wider range of protection to help you gain the maximum from your footwear. The suede leather upper keeps the feet protected from debris and sharp objects and minimises the risks of wear and tear. The suede is also water-resistant to provide added protection at all times. This version of the Nucleon has also been created with a GORE-TEX Extended Comfort Footwear lining that offers waterproof protection to keep you dry and comfortable. To avoid damp feet, and therefore dampened spirits, the GORE-TEX membrane resides inside the shoe; supplying a combination of durable waterproofing and optimised breathability. Sometimes it's hard to stay dry without developing that distracting clammy feeling, but GORE-TEX keeps water on the outside while letting perspiration escape from the inside; keeping sweat to a minimum and you, cool and comfortable. Additionally, a Schoeller Soft Shell collar features on the upper to provide lightweight protection, comfort and freedom of movement. A rubber toe cap provides protection from loose debris and rocks on tricky terrains so you can continue your adventure with confidence. Completing the upper is a fast and precise lacing system which locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.

Mono-Density EVA Midsole

Designed using a moulded EVA midsole, these walking shoes aim to provide you with enough cushioning and comfort to get you through the day. The EVA midsole provides comfort, stability and protection on uneven terrain, residing underfoot for lightweight, responsive cushioning. Generous, soft and durable, it spares your joints as you strike down onto hard, unforgiving surfaces. Exceptionally lightweight, the EVA ensures long-lasting cushioning to keep you comfortable on long-distance days. This moulded EVA is made with a new generation compound, offering a great balance between elasticity, fit and high absorption. EVA is extremely firm, which will absorb shocks instantly and effectively, preventing them from causing any damage to the sole of the foot. Energy produced from this will also be returned as rebound, which will give you an added spring in your step.

Asolo/Vibram Synthesis with MegaGrip Outsole

Providing traction and grip on uneven surfaces, the Asolo Nucleon has been constructed using design technologies from both Asolo and Vibram. The Synthesis outsole utilises Vibram MegaGrip to offer excellent grip properties on both dry and wet terrains while maintaining a higher level of durability. This high-performance rubber compound gifts you with an unparalleled grip on wet and dry surfaces, rugged longevity and optimal ground adaptability. The Vibram rubber is built for extremely slippery terrain as it can form a solid bond with the ground to anchor you in place. Despite facing abuse from rough ground, the rubber deflects blows and retains a strong shape and structure. Providing you with excellent grip and traction, these walking shoes will be an excellent addition to any mountaineering enthusiast. The rubber outsole is designed with low-profile lugs and with lateral elements in the more stressful areas. Lastly, the lugs are self-cleaning and designed for optimum performance on varying types of terrain.
