Hanwag Blueridge ES Hiking Shoes – Dusk/Anthracite Discount

Modern, lightweight and multifunctional – and equipped with numerous sustainable and innovative features.

In addition to the durable Perwanger upper leather and the upper material recycled in accordance with the ‘Global Recycling Standard’, these include above all the completely PFC-free membrane. The material used in the Blueridge ES comes exclusively from European suppliers; the shoe is manufactured entirely in Europe. However, durability and sustainability do not come at the expense of function and comfort! The Blueridge ES proves this with a perfect fit and a newly developed midsole: this is a three-dimensional structure made of compact and expanded polyurethane, which forms a kind of shell in which the foot lies comfortably. A raised sole edge made of stabilizing PU provides additional support around the foot and at the heel. A thermoformable foam in the HANWAG 3D-BreathFit tongue compensates for the anatomical asymmetry of the foot through asymmetrical padding and adapts to the individual foot shape. With the non-slip Terragrip outsole with 4mm tread depth along with large studs with a wide contact surface, the foot not only rolls easily and harmoniously, the modern-designed Blueridge ES thus feels comfortable on a wide variety of surfaces – from autumnal, wet low mountain ranges to Mediterranean, sandy coastal hiking trails.

EcoShell Footwear Membrane

This PU membrane developed by HANWAG is based on a complex hydrophilic system that achieves waterproofness and breathability, but completely eliminates the use of fluorocarbons. The whole thing is used as a stable 3-layer laminate.
