THIS IS HOW THE HIKEPRO® WORKS
EXTRA COMFORT WITH EVERY STEP
Every step starts with the heel. This is exactly where the first phase of HikePro® support comes in: The high-performance damping element under the heel minimises harmful vibrations during foot strike and actively protects against overloading.
HOLD ON TIGHTER IN YOUR HIKING SHOE
When going downhill, the foot must not slip forward in the shoe. This creates the hiker's worst enemies: blisters. Thanks to our special anti-slip technology in the heel and anatomical support in the metatarsus, the foot stays securely in the shoe even on the steepest downhill passages, and friction on the sole is reduced.
PROTECTION AND SUPPORT
Your metatarsal heads are sensitive and can quickly become overloaded on long hikes. That's why we give them an extra dose of cushioning in the forefoot to prevent foot burn and forefoot discomfort. In the midsection of the HikePro®, your foot is dynamically supported under your longitudinal arch - preventing and helping with injuries such as plantar fasciitis and heel spurs that can affect many ill-equipped hikers on a tour.
INDIVIDUALLY CUSTOMIZED
Every foot and every movement is individual. We don't believe in a rigid insole that only matches the shape of your foot. That's why we developed the dynamic CURREX insole and, through thousands of motion analyses, we have created a system that allows us to classify each athlete into one of three profiles; to do this, we focus on the shape of the foot as well as the leg axis.
