Description

<p>The Aku Rock DFS GTX is a technical approach shoe and impresses with its very low weight and sportiness designed for best wearing comfort. Compared to all its predecessors, this completely new model shines with the unique DFS double lacing system, which allows you to adjust the forefoot setting with a single hand movement if you need tighter lacing for optimal control when climbing.</p><p>The combination of the lightweight Air8000® upper with leather, microfibre and the reliably waterproof Gore-Tex® lining ensures a pleasant foot climate thanks to its good breathability, even on intensive climbs. Nevertheless, you can count on the necessary robustness.</p><p>Thanks to the anatomically precise fit, which is relatively close to the foot, and the relatively flexible sole, you can also cover longer distances comfortably and relaxed. Together with the Elica Stride System concept for smooth rolling, the versatile Rock DFS GTX is ideally suited for sporty alpine use with light climbing.</p>
