THE SHAPE
The creation of a last, the result of constant research into plantar anatomy, is a long and accurate process in which AKU's long experience in the design and production of high-quality mountaineering, backpacking and trekking footwear is condensed.
The original AKU shape is the matrix from which, thanks to specific adaptations, the different types of shape derive, which vary in relation to the different models and the specific function of use of the product.
Soft and welcoming shapes are the prerogative of the footwear in the ACTIVE segment, intended for light outdoor activities, in non-demanding conditions and on regular surfaces. Enveloping and anatomical shapes are instead intended for the footwear in the TREKKING segment, to offer stability and promote dynamic action when walking on mountain paths with very irregular surfaces. Finally, dry and elongated shapes are used in the professional footwear in the MOUNTAIN segment, to promote precision and sensitivity when used in rock and ice climbing.
The different fits:
-
