In the second season of use, the mesh by the bend started to wear out, which seems rather short for trekking footwear. Additionally, the plastic elements fastening the laces broke – I had to tie the laces by hand.
Lightweight, low trekking shoes, designed for long-term off-road wear. They are ideal for everyday wear, short field trips or hiking. They have been equipped with a durable Vibram sole, which is characterized by a high grip index on both dry and wet terrain.
The boots have additionally been equipped with a Hydrotex membrane, which increases water resistance and improves ventilation and wicking of moisture and heat. The front part of the shoe has been equipped with a synthetic Toe Protection Zone ottoman, which protects the foot from injury. A multi-layer sole with a pronounced tread provides cushioning and good traction regardless of the terrain. A contoured insole enhances comfort. Inside the shoe there is a thin EVA foam insole, which is responsible for shock absorption.
The shoes are equipped with a precise and low lacing system, which allows them to be precisely adjusted to the user's preferences. In addition, they have been equipped with a practical puller with a stopwatch for quick putting on and taking off the shoes. A pocket has been sewn onto the inside of the tongue to hide the laces. On the back of the upper there is a loop, which makes it easier to quickly put the footwear on.
Located on the upper, Alpinus Safety reflective elements improve visibility after dark.

The shoes are light, comfortable, and performed well during a short weekend trip to the mountains. The weather, however, was favourable, so I didn’t have the chance to test them in more difficult conditions. After covering about 50 km I didn’t notice any problems.
-
These shoes are an example that here you only pay for the brand name. They quickly came apart, and the lacing system broke after a few months. I gave them a chance, but they failed the test. Although they cost less than my Salomons, with this brand the price also reflects the solid quality. I have several pairs of Salomons, which maintain a high standard. Here, unfortunately, you only pay for the brand, and the quality does not match the price.

The shoes are really comfortable, practical, and pleasant to wear, but the quick lacing system leaves a lot to be desired. After three months the plastic element holding the lace ends fell off, which made the stopper come off and it can no longer be mounted correctly. The manufacturer should improve this, because this flaw makes the practicality of the lacing system disappear, and the shoes lose their value, which affects my low rating.

The footwear is very light and comfortable – well contoured, does not press or rub the foot. The guard is durable, and the sole provides good grip. The lacing system is convenient, although it takes some getting used to, but it effectively stabilises the foot.
-
The shoes are very comfortable – right after putting them on, there was no discomfort for the foot. The lacing system allows for quick and easy adjustment, and the sole provides stability on various surfaces. Unfortunately, I had to return them because after just two days of gentle use, the rubber protection on the toes started to come off. I give 3 stars for comfort, lacing and the sole.
