La Sportiva Touring boots

Vega Man is an advanced ski touring boot with four buckles for ski mountaineers and freeriders looking for the perfect combination between the performance, control, strength and precision of a downhill boot and the agility, handling and lightness of an advanced ski touring boot. The shell is made of lightweight and strong Grilamid® Carbon Renforced. The patented Vertebra Technology™ locking system with carbon is part of the boot and supports power transmission on the descent thanks to its outstanding "125-Flex" flexibility properties. The flexibility of the shell of 60° in combination with the improved roll-off behavior and the patented "EZ Flex™" movement system of the liner improve the walking characteristics of the product. Thanks to the Vibram® outsole with dual compound/dual compression, the shoe is also suitable for technical passages on rock and slippery surfaces. Compatibility with both race-TECH pin bindings and AT bindings ensures optimum versatility. Vega: free your pow(d)er. Technical data La Sportiva Vega Man Black: + G-Shell™: super-compact shell: only 303 mm in length at size 27.5. made of lightweight Grilamid® to reduce the thickness and weight of the boot while maintaining structural solidity. The upper has an extreme flexibility of 60° with closed buckles (30° forward + 30° backward). The innovative Rear Diffuser guarantees more stability and safety of the ankle when the cuff is closed and tilted forward+ Cuff: the Dual-Axis Cuff™ cuff is composed of two synergistic elements: 1) a double-density Pebax® cuff with two Climbing System Control™ buckles that provide control and lateral stability and give the ankle more freedom of movement on the ascent, 2) the patented Vertebra Technology™ blocking system reinforced with carbon: as a structural part of the boot, it supports power transmission during the descent thanks to its extraordinary "120-Flex" flexibility. The additional asymmetrical spoiler at the back allows for improved adjustment of the ski boot tuning and foot position in the shaft+ Walking Profile: the biaxial shaft with its 60° mobility and the shell construction offer an AT. The 17 mm ramp angle offers a comfortable fit even after many hours of use+ Shell Line: hardening line defined by structural analysis on 3D models to counteract the deformation of the shell+ EZ Flex™ Tongue: Shoe tongue in Pebax® Rnew® bio-based with movement insert: this concept was derived from La Sportiva mountain boots and allows a lot of freedom of movement on steep inclines. There is a small gaiter under the tongue to protect against snow. The position of the boot tongue can be adjusted to 3 positions with a range of 4 mm. This allows the fit to be personalized and can greatly contribute to the fit and overall comfort when walking+ 4BT Tech Last™: the neutral shape with a width of 102.5 mm keeps the foot in a comfortable position to tackle very technical terrain. The shape is similar to the Spitfi res, Siderals and Starlets, but is slightly roomier for more comfort in the front area and in correspondence of the fifth metatarsal bone+ WarmSole™ Insert: removable insulating insole in polyurethane: prevents direct contact between foot and upper, increases the thermal properties of the boot and makes it the warmest four-buckle boot on the market+ EZ-TECH Buckles™ (patented): Aluminum buckles with ratchet closure for fine adjustment, for faster opening and closing+ Power Strap: Velcro fastener with which you can close the shaft even better around the leg to be able to handle any descent+ Vertebra Technology™: patented Grilamid® swivel with carbon inserts. It is a structural part of the shaft and guarantees maximum safety and precision in "downhill mode", whereby the leg power is optimally transferred to the shaft and the ski for determined and powerful descents+ Walk/Ski Mechanism: instant locking system to make the transition from ski to walk in a single movement: patented+ Adjustment system on the swivel: the inclination of the shaft can be set to 3 positions: 10°, 14°, 18°+ Vibram® Outsole™: Vibram® sole with dual rubber compound and soft 85 Shore inserts on the toe and heel to facilitate climbing on technical passages. Centering system with distance gauge for easy and quick snapping of the binding+ Compatibility with bindings: Race TECH bindings, AT bindings and exclusive compatibility, for which you only need to unscrew two small details with the supplied wrench+ V-LINER: the liner preformed on the shaft offers immediate comfort. The thermoformability offers an additional customization option if necessary

Vanguard is the modern boot for the demanding skier: the perfect balance between comfort and technique both on the ascent and the descent makes the boot suitable for touring and freetouring.comfort, lightness and high rotation ensure easy and intuitive use and comfort on the ascent. Thanks to the innovative design and the special shaft construction, the boot is just as solid and reactive on the descent as a freeride or alpine ski boot. The materials used correspond to the current state of the art for plastics combined with carbon and glass fibers. The use of the environmentally friendly Pebax® Bio Based Rnew 1100 material protects the environment. Each component enables optimum and precise power transmission to the ski, combined with high abrasion resistance and incredible lightness. The heart of the boot is the cuff with asymmetrical V-SHAPE™ closure, which combines high freedom of movement and very intuitive donning. To put the shoe on easily, all you need to do is set the walk mode and open the front buckles. The fit is wide and the extremely simple closure of the upper automatically puts the rear tongue in place. The Ultralon® liner and the highly durable Vibram® V-Lug sole round off this innovative product. Vanguard: Free the Future. Technical data La Sportiva Vanguard Carbon/Yellow: + Pebax® Shell: Comfortable and high-performance shell made from the environmentally friendly Pebax® Bio Based Rnew 1100 material, which is obtained from castor oil. Extreme cold resistance and optimum flexibility. Geometry according to ISO standards.+ V-SHAPE™Pebax® Cuff: shaft made of Pebax® Bio Based Rnew 1100 with excellent rotation of 63°: maximum freedom of movement to move quickly and safely in any situation. Asymmetrical closure which, thanks to the special "scissor" geometry and wide fit, makes putting on the boot extremely quick and intuitive. The shoe can be put on quickly and easily by setting the walk mode and opening the front buckles: The shoe is now ready to be put on. Carbon reinforced upper for the men's version (FLEX 130) and fiberglass reinforced for the women's version (FLEX 115)+ EZ Flex™ Double Tongue: Pebax® tongue consisting of two components with two different thicknesses, top and bottom, to combine maximum freedom of movement in walk mode and perfect power transmission in ski mode.+ V-Guard Interfaces™: lockable reinforcements made from materials used in alpine skiing. They have been placed on the heel and toe where the binding is attached for maximum durability.+ WarmSole insert: removable polyurethane insole with insulating effect. The insole avoids direct contact of the foot with the shell and increases thermal performance.+ EZ-LOCK Closure System™: Rotating rear ski/walk system made of Ergal and technopolymer: it guarantees maximum speed of closure and prevents the mechanical components from being subjected to impacts and unwanted stresses.+ TWIN-PWR™: double elastic upper strap that combines a perfect closure on the shin with a pleasant elastic effect while skiing, guaranteeing comfort and precision on the descent.+ Compact Buckle™: patented lever closure system. The lever remains next to the shell to reduce volume and distribute tension evenly, for maximum freedom of movement without exposed parts outside the shaft that could get in the way of the ski tourer.+ Double Release™: the lower closure is compact and precise thanks to the "Spider Buckle Evo" technical solution: this allows a perfect distribution of tension on the central part of the instep of the foot by acting on the high-resistance Adjustable Cable™, which is anchored directly on the axes of the rivets. This reduces the deformation of the shell on the descent.+ Vibram® V-LUGS™: ISO UNI EN 9523 compliant sole with highly durable lockable inserts on the heel and toe.+ S4 Evo binding mounting plate: makes it easier to get into the binding thanks to a sophisticated design+ VNG LINER: thermoformable liner specially designed to interact with the shell and shaft: Enables an ergonomic and enveloping fit and optimum comfort. Protection of the ankles thanks to housings made with materials with differentiated thicknesses and thanks to the Ultralon® Performance Foam material.
