Tecnica Forge Hike MID GTX MS hiking shoes

The Forge Hike Mid GTX is a contemporary interpretation of the timeless hiking mid cut shoe, featuring Tecnica's exclusive AST technology for a perfect fit. The lightweight construction and balanced cushioning provide all-day comfort for walking on trails and in technical terrain. Equipped with premium technologies by Gore-tex®and Ortholite ®.

The accurate design and expert craftsmanship of the Forge Hike make use of premium materials and technologies to limit the overall weight, without making compromises on durability. As a result, the shoe is lightweight and built to last, reducing both your effort while hiking and your environmental impact over time.

To provide comfort all day, the Forge Hike features a soft EVA mono-density midsole that absorbs impacts, cushioning the foot in uneven mountain terrain. The midsole geometry has been developed to match the Superhike outsole with Tecnigrip compound to provide a natural and effortless stride. The anatomical knitted collar and tongue provide extra comfort in critical areas.

The Forge Hike benefits from Tecnica's exclusive AST - Adaptive Shape Technology, which includes designing the shoe around an anatomical and activity specific last. So, the shoe fits like a glove holding the forefoot and heel firmly in place during on-trail hiking and in technical terrain.
