Who should buy the Comfortable hiking boot

- The Comfortable hiking boot is great for traversing technical terrain. The boot’s full-grain leather upper is both resistant to water and abrasive elements.
- The boot comes with the brand’s proprietary Triple Power Structure (TPS) sole, a unit that has a rockered form. Its midsole is made of bi-density polyurethane (PU) which lessens the amount of impact received by the foot. The Asolo/Vibram-powered outsole is in charge of traction.
Size and fit
Asolo offers the TPS 535 LTH V Evo in whole and half sizes for men and women. The men’s version comes in standard and wide. The women’s boot is only offered in standard width. The boot fairly runs true to size. A classic lace-up closure renders a customized fit.
Quick lace-up system
The TPS 535 LTH V Evo’s outsole is borne out of Asolo's partnership with Vibram. This rubber outsole is able to grip different types of surfaces.

Its lugs are widely spaced, flushing both water and mud away and preventing slippage. The sole extends at the front part, thereby protecting the toes from stubbing.

The Triple Power Structure technology incorporates a dual-density polyurethane midsole which has one part aiding cushioning and another providing support. It also features three low-density PU cylinders. Two cylinders are positioned in the heel area. The lateral cylinder absorbs shock while the medial one delivers stability. The third cylinder in the metatarsal region aids the toe-off action.
Track and field
Underfoot comfort and arch support are supplied by the Asolo TPS LTH V Evo’s Lite 2 Footbed. An Asoflex 00 MR lasting board provides additional impact protection.
Add a product
The Comfortable hiking boot has a leather upper (the full-grain kind with a thickness of 2.2 to 2.4mm), making it durable. It’s resistant against water and keeps the wearer’s foot dry. A Cambrielle lining wicks the excess moisture away.
Lack of ventilation
The upper uses a set of metal eyelets and hooks, permitting a quick lace-up. The padded tongue and collar promote comfort.
