Asolo
Asolo are mountain specialists and produce high-tech mountaineering and hiking shoes and boots. Based in northern Italy, this brand has been at the forefront of research and technological innovation since it opened its doors in 1975 with its first range of technical mountaineering shoes.
This world-famous Italian brand is known for its robust, waterproof Outdoor shoes. Its success is partly thanks to its collaboration with Vibram, a company that specialises in mountain-friendly soles, and with Gore-Tex, a brand that makes breathable, waterproof membranes.
As a result, it's received numerous accolades. For example, the American magazine Backpacker awarded its Editor's Choice to the Athena WP, which is part of their Natural Shape range. This big brand's success boils down to its technical prowess combined with the care taken when designing new products.
Constantly striving to produce footwear that remains comfy during any activity and designs suited to all foot/body shapes, Asolo also offers men's and women's hiking shoes and boots. The new women's Athena WP ML Lilla shoe from the Natural Shape range embodies the brand's revolutionary hiking technology.
Extra-lightweight, supple, waterproof and with a cool look, this shoe provides a natural comfort matched by its high-performance. Similarly, and designed for midmountain hikes, the women's Drifter GV ML Lilla has a higher cuff that provides extra support for the ankle.
The Rift MM has been designed for men. Comfy and robust, this low shoe has a suede-inspired finish and is specifically designed for hikes.
