The main focus of the Italian brand Kayland is the development and creation of high-end hiking and mountaineering shoes, specially designed for specialized use. The brand makes a careful selection of the profile, design, anatomical features, technical requirements and suitable materials for each product, so that it is perfect for its specific purpose - from light walks in the forest to ice climbing, crossing glaciers and hard expeditions at high altitude height.
Starland GTX are unisex hiking boots designed for light hikes and trekking in the mountains. Their design preserves the classic mountain look by combining it with the comfort of high-end modern technology. Light, compact and comfortable, Starland GTX are made of nubuck leather, combined with textile that reduce the weight of the construction, and are combined with Gore-Tex Performance Comfort membrane for an overall protection from elements. This Gore-Tex fabric is suitable for many activities in the mountains and with light insulation to create an optimal microclimate while preserving heat without steaming.
The chosen outsole for this model is Vibram New Makalu - a sole made for trekking. The tread is perfectly sculpted to guarantee maximum traction. Thanks to wide channels that allow water and mud to be expelled, the soles remain clean and their grip stays effective. A unique feature, the entire tread has an S line running through
it, promoting the natural roll of the foot, improving comfort during long walks. This effect is completed by a soft and adaptable foam insole. The midsole is made of Polyurethane (PU), which ensures stability when the road takes you to more rocky and technical terrain.
If you are looking for a light and comfortable trekking shoe for moderately difficult treks in both dry and rainy weather, the Starland GTX from Kayland is a great choice, combining style with high technology.
