Footwear for canyoning of the brand La Sportiva.
The TX Canyon are mid-cut boots for canyoning and canyoning with all the comfort and safety features in an environment as hostile as the interior of a ravine. Its best features focus on grip, water evacuation and comfort during use, and it is also a very durable model thanks to the resistance of its materials and its construction with protection elements. PFC-free water repellency and fast drying to have boots like new from one day to the next with the greatest respect for the environment.
The boots have a structure with a medium height of the cane to allow a good movement of the ankle in descents and unstable terrain but with enough support to avoid injuries. The lacing is quick and safe thanks to the Quick-lace adjustment system of laces and Tongue-Lock velcro band attached to the tongue at the height of the malleolus. The set of lace + band adjustment systems has been given the name of Spyral Collar, forming a unique system that achieves an enveloping fit by hermetically closing the boot at the ankle and preventing the entry of small stones and other elements such as twigs or earth.
One of its great strengths is its Vibram® IdroGrip, studied and designed specifically for progression through aquatic environments in the mountains, with unbeatable grip and a cleat that prioritizes the contact surface and also prevents the accumulation of mud and the embedding of small stones that could compromise grip . It also has a "climbing-zone" under the hallux (big toe) that allows all the safety in declimbing and short climbs on small ledges to avoid the possibility of skidding as much as possible.
The TX Canyon have been built with a recycled EVA compression midsole to which a molded internal insole is added to increase stability. This allows for great comfort during the approach and return to the ravine, as well as unparalleled shock absorption from jumps. The sole and midsole set achieves extra protection against sharp edges and edges, allowing comfortable progression and total safety for our feet.
The upper is made of Ariaprene® 4 layers, achieving the perfect balance between stability, compression, elasticity and water evacuation. Each and every one of the layers is free of toxic products that can dissolve in the water of the ravines and affect the sensitive flora and fauna of such a delicate environment as the mountain channels. The four layers are: an abrasion-resistant TPU outer layer, a water-based intermediate lamination layer, a 2mm soft foam layer for a comfortable fit and cushioning effect, and an external structure that acts as a protection barrier.
Protective perimeter strap without edges or edges, with well integrated heel and toe to prevent snagging and tripping over stones and roots. Drainage valves in the plantar arch to instantly evacuate water and not increase weight or compromise thermal comfort. The half pair has an approximate weight of 470 grams.
