Tre Cime, Marmolada, Cinque Torri, Tofana – experiencing the Dolomites to the fullest means navigating rock, ice, and snow, often in challenging conditions and on highly technical terrain. In these circumstances, you need to be able to count on the utmost reliability and safety from your footwear.
The Ortles Ascent Mid Gore-Tex® mountain boot is the solution for the most demanding mountaineers. The robust suede upper, the SALEWA® 3F system with steel tie rods, and the reinforced TPU rand make it exceptionally resistant and durable, while the rigid nylon, glass, and carbon fiber insole increases stability during activity. Designed with a dual-density polyurethane foam midsole with rigid and cushioning zones, it guarantees comfort and precision. Interchangeable Multi Fit Footbed Plus (MFF+) insoles are included in the package for further customization of the fit.
The waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX® Insulated Comfort membrane provides an extra layer of insulation, helping keep feet warmer and drier even in the harshest winter conditions. The elasticized gaiter on the tongue prevents the entry of external elements such as mud and snow. The APS ankle protection system ensures excellent performance and protection on the downhill thanks to the thermoformed heel that provides additional lateral support, while the flexible collar further improves rear mobility.
The Vibram® Alpine Guide sole is designed to ensure traction, durability, and reliability on technical terrain and at low temperatures. It is compatible with semi-automatic crampons. Its overall durability is key for use with crampons on snow and ice. The tread design features self-cleaning lugs for maximum grip even in extreme conditions. The toe profile is designed for climbing and guarantees high performance.
Salewa Ortles Ascent Mid Gore-Tex® represents the ultimate performance for winter mountaineering at the highest levels.
