Bestard Space Mid

Description

The Bestard Space Mid GTX is a lightweight mid-cut trekking boot designed for hikers seeking a balanced combination of support, ventilation, and waterproofing. Its construction combines water-repellent split leather and Cordura® with advanced GORE-TEX® Surround technology, providing protection against moisture without sacrificing excellent breathability.

Actual Technical Performance

The main difference of the Space Mid compared to many traditional hiking boots is the incorporation of GORE-TEX® Surround. This technology allows for much more efficient ventilation around the foot, promoting heat and moisture wicking during long days of activity.

The Trail Tech 40 last provides stability and comfort for hours of walking, while the Vibram® Vento sole with an EVA midsole offers grip, cushioning, and security on trails, forest paths, and medium-mountain terrain.

With a weight of 950 g/pair (EUR 42), it offers more support than a trekking shoe without reaching the weight of a classic mountaineering boot.
