Thanks to the interchangeable layers of the Multi Fit Footbed Plus (MFF+), the footbed of the shoe can be customized.The Vibram® Alpine Guide sole is compatible with Semi-Automatic crampons and offers grip, durability and reliability in difficult terrain and low temperatures. Its overall robustness is a key factor for use with crampons on snow and ice. The tread is characterized by self-cleaning lugs for excellent grip and a toe profile designed for climbing with high edge performance. The waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX® Insulated Comfort membrane has an additional insulating layer to keep your feet warm and dry on cold winter days in the mountains.
