Description
Discover the dynamic and reliable fast hiking shoe that performs exceptionally well even on the most challenging trails. The Rocket DFS GTX from AKU is designed specifically for men and, thanks to innovative Vibram Traction Lug technology, offers 25% better traction and grip. The high-quality upper is protected by a 3D-printed layer, making the shoe exceptionally sturdy and durable. With its waterproof Gore-Tex® membrane, your feet will always stay dry, no matter the weather.
A special highlight of the Rocket DFS GTX is the exclusive AKU Dual Fit System (DFS), which has been specifically optimized for speed hiking. This system allows for easy adjustment of the fit using two different lacing systems, so you can always enjoy optimal support and comfort. This is complemented by the AKU Elica Natural Stride System, which improves biodynamic performance and makes hiking and speed hiking even more enjoyable.
The shoe features a low-cut design and, with a lace length of 94 cm, offers an ideal fit. The insole is made of 2.0 mm polypropylene and die-cut EVA, providing a perfect balance between flexibility and support. The Rocket DFS GTX is also available in a women’s version, which is specifically adapted to the female foot’s anatomy.
