Product Features
AKU Croda DFS GTX (AK963) – Black/Orange
Croda DFS GTX is light, agile, precise and extremely comfortable technical mountaineering footwear for challenging climbing and trekking in mixed terrain with rock and ice. The aramid fibre upper combined with the Spider Frame over-injection is built to resist impact and abrasion while keeping freedom of movement. Underfoot, the Vibram® Croda Litebase sole is designed to deliver stability, grip and precision in technical situations, and it allows the use of traditional or semi-automatic crampons. AKU Elica Natural Stride System supports biodynamic efficiency, while the Dual Fit System (DFS) lets you switch between walking and climbing fit modes using two different lacing systems. An elastic cover helps prevent snow and debris entering the upper.
