www.webtogs.co.uk In this video from Webtogs, Lucy takes you through the Scarpa Kailash boots to explain why she loves them so much! Ideal for trail hiking, rugged day hikes, and regular abuse; the Scarpa Kailash is a medium-weight boot with maximum comfort. Features: * Suede leather uppers * Gore-Tex lining * Moisture-wicking synthetic sock liner * Close-to-toe lacing and gusseted tongues * rubber rands protect toes against bumps and abrasion * Comfort-Flex midsole * Polyurethane and EVA midsoles * Lightweight Vibram Hi-Trail outsoles Tech details: Weight: 620g / 22oz Vibram Hi Trail Sole The Vibram sole unit used on the Scarpa Kailash is incredibly light, yet unlike others who have tried to lighten soles by lowering the profile, it retains deep cleating that gives outstanding grip. Based on a Megabyte trekking mix, it gives great adhesion with easy self cleaning action during use. The combination of rubber outsole and ultra-Lite PU wedge gives great underfoot shock absorption. Midsole – Comfort Flex Using nylon for its permanent performance qualities, the comfort flex midsole is moulded so it has minimum flex in the heel section but gives comfortable flex in the forefoot area. It is used for walking and hillwalking footwear.
