Who should buy the updated Mar 14, 2023
Vasque’s Breeze LT GTX is a hiking boot that enables adventurers to tackle trails with comfort and lightweight performance. It is ideal for:
- outdoor adventurers who want mid-cut hiking gear that offers protection in different weather conditions.
- Breeze LT GTX’s responsive midsole.
- Vasque’s exclusive Vibram outsole.
Vasque’s exclusive Vibram outsole
The Breeze LT GTX uses a Vasque-exclusive Vibram Ground Control LiteBase. It’s made of Megagrip, a durable rubber compound that can resist wear and tear. This component features Litebase technology, which reduces its overall weight by 25%.
The outsole’s profile employs a pattern of cross-shaped lugs to supply multi-directional traction on virtually all kinds of surfaces. Its forefoot and heel sections contain grooves for added control when traversing downhill and uphill conditions.
The sole’s forepart slightly extends upward to render extra stub protection.
Breeze LT GTX’s responsive midsole
This updated Mar 14, 2023 employs a dual-density compression-molded Enduralast midsole. It’s made of lightweight EVA foam which gives a responsive and stabilized ride.
This Vasque-exclusive midsole resists constant compression for a longer cushion life. It’s paired with an anatomical high rebound footbed for arch support and underfoot comfort.
Vasque designed the Breeze LT GTX with a lightweight yet protective upper
The updated Mar 14, 2023 is equipped with a lightweight upper made of abrasion-resistant mesh and synthetic microfiber fabric.
Keeping the wearer’s foot dry is a Gore-Tex Extended Comfort membrane embedded into the upper. Its microporous surface prevents water intrusions while allowing excess moisture and heat to escape.
A rand wraps around the boot to imbue it with extra durability and trail protection.
Its closure system consists of a series of eyelets and two pairs of metal hooks to manage the fit.
A pull tab is located at the collar’s back to endow the user with an easy on and off.
