Our verdict
The Top 1% in is sought-after for being super comfortable right out of the box, stylish, and versatile. Some people find it expensive though. But that makes up for the quality construction and suede leather upper. And since it’s a low-cut shoe, it may not offer complete protection on rugged terrain.

For the outsole, the Space GV makes use of Vibram Megagrip technology. It has good grip on both dry and wet surfaces. It is “sticky” but is long-wearing.
Abrasion-resistant
This sole also features self-cleaning lugs that allow hikers to tackle muddy terrain with ease. Lastly, this Vibram technology increases grip on wet grounds and resists abrasion.
Durable and comfortable cushioning
This low-cut hiker from Asolo is equipped with a single-density EVA midsole. EVA is currently the most popular material used in manufacturing midsoles because it’s very durable, firm but still cushiony, and has rebound properties.

Stylish designs
These Asolo shoes are very stylish, thanks to the one-piece suede leather upper which comes in three colors - black, walnut, and beluga.
Lack of ankle cushioning
The insides of the shoe are lined with Gore-Tex Extended Comfort - a durable waterproof membrane with “climate comfort performance”. This technology offers non-insulated footwear waterproof protection with some breathability.
There is, however, not enough breathable material in the upper (such as mesh). This means the shoe can get a little warmer on really humid days. Thankfully, it’s a low-cut model which means your foot won’t feel too hot and skimped.
Secure fit
Completing the upper is a traditional lace-up closure for a secure fit. There’s a pull tab in the heel system for assisted entry.
