From the beginning Asolo’s philosophy has been to develop innovative and technologically advanced footwear with great looks. Asolo pays particular attention to the natural flex of the foot while also making sure that performance and comfort of its footwear is maximized.

For this reason, the new Asolo collection has been developed using 16 different lasts, each one with specific anatomical features sculpted to match defined and user criteria and fit characteristics.

The priority at Asolo is to develop products with specific fit and comfort benefits.

All components (leathers, textiles, laces, foams, and threads) and the entire shoe construction itself are precisely coordinated and subjected to regular quality inspections.

The Perwanger tannery is a leather reality with behind a family tradition of more than two centuries, lovingly handed down from father to son for more than five generations since 1780. Born in the heart of the Italian Alps, in the village of Auer (BZ), begins to tan skins from local farmers as was tradition in every community to provide the local shoemaker craftsmen. In the early 70s, after many attempts and driven by his passion for mountains hikes, Josef Perwanger could give the water repellent proprieties to his leathers. Until then the climbers were forced to impregnate their boots with grease. Suede Nepal Perwanger was born. Thanks to the excellent water resistance and breathability and unique producing methods, the suede Nepal Perwanger is gradually into large-scale adopted in the mountain footwear, leisure and security shoes.

DUO RADIANT EVA MIDSOLE:

> The midsole is named Duo Radiant, as it is constructed with two different EVA densities.
> The top is more compact to improve stability.
> The lower part is made with a softer material for shock absorption.
> The lower density (softer) stretches from the heel to the toe to offer maximum comfort during the activity.

DUO RADIANT OUTSOLE:

> Project developed in conjunction with Vibram.
> The outsole design offers outstanding performance and grip.
> The aggressive heel cleats combined with Aso-brake enhance the grip on descents.

THE OUTSOLE TECHNOLOGY:

1. Moulded EVA midsole (harder)
2. Moulded EVA midsole (softer)
3. Asolo/Vibram Duo Radiant rubber outsole (Mega Grip compound)

Vibram MegaGrip offers excellent grip properties on both dry and wet terrains while maintaining a higher level of durability. Developed for the user who frequently encounters slippery surfaces, Vibram MegaGrip is suitable for trekking and multisport as well as all season hiking and travel.

Megagrip offers an incomparable combination of grip and durability which helps define Vibram MegaGrip as the ideal high-performance rubber compound for extremely demanding activities

In 1935, tragedy drives Vitale Bramani to develop an outsole capable of excellent traction on mixed surfaces. Using vulcanized rubber technology, he developed the Carrarmato design. The design was soon famous. Even today, it remains one of the most used soles by mountain climbers. Asolo’s footwear are made using outsole designed by Asolo and made by Vibram.
