Features

GORE-TEX®

• The Gore-Tex® membrane is an exclusive heat-sealed technical fabric which contains about 1.4 billion microscopic pores per square centimeter. These pores are approximately 20,000 times smaller than a drop of water but 700 times bigger than a molecule of moisture vapor. So, whilst water droplets cannot penetrate the GORE -TEX membrane, moisture vapor, namely perspiration in gas form, can easily escape.

VIBRAM

• Vibram is synonymous with the sole for mountain footwear, an essential component for the safety and technical performance of the product. Vibram’s experience is condensed in the research and development of specific compounds for use on different terrains and environmental conditions; AKU’s contribution is based on the design of the tread profile, conceived and designed according to the intended use of the product. From this synergy are born soles that AKU adopts on many of its models, generating its own exclusive standard of performance.

The sole design

• The sole is one of the elements that make up the shoe and must be considered as part of a single project, consistent with the technical / functional needs of the type of shoe that is being designed and the last on which it will be built. In the case of AKU, the sole must copy the anatomical and helical shape of the bottom of our last, in order to support and enhance its anatomical and dynamic characteristics.
• Another aspect to pay attention to is its reliability which must also be consistent with the use for which the shoe was designed, with a view to minimizing material waste to obtain the maximum required result.
• A further element of attention is the search for the simplicity of interface / assembly between the sole and the other components of the shoe. In summary: maximum attention to the minimalism of the sole, both in weight and in the components and design choices.
