Hanwag’s Makra Light GTX delivers agile, all round performance for mountain enthusiasts who appreciate the benefits of a low-cut boot. It features an ultra-durable Vibram Makra EVA outer sole, which is solid enough to stand up to rugged terrain while simultaneously providing a good feel for the terrain underfoot, and a well cushioned base promotes good roll-off performance. Other features include a special 2-zone lacing system with mechanical lace lock system that is easily adapted to the demands of harsh, unforgiving terrain. Unlike conventional clamping lace hooks, this mechanical style of lace lock won’t slip once it’s locked in place – it requires manual intervention to unlock it. This makes it possible to have tighter lacing at the ankle and more relaxed lacing at the upper section of the boot, for instance, for greater freedom of movement on ascents or when climbing. While on the descents, the entire lacing can be locked down above the ankle too, for greater stability.
