Hiking boots Scarpa ZODIAC GTX size 44, anthracite/sulphur, 490 g

The Scarpa ZODIAC GTX hiking boots in anthracite/sulphur, EU size 44 and weighing 490 g, are designed for trekking and mountain use where waterproofing, temperature management and secure footing are required. The upper is made from water-repellent Perwanger leather enhanced with 37.5® technology to actively manage humidity and help maintain optimal foot temperature. The Sock-Fit XT construction wraps the foot for a close, sock-like fit and the extended lacing with metal eyelets allows precise adjustment from ankle to toe. The GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane provides reliable waterproofing and breathability, while the ABS Precision sole with Bascula Adaptive System and MONT-VIBRAM compound ensures targeted flex, traction and stability on varied terrain.

Advantages

These hiking boots combine durable, water-repellent Perwanger leather and a GORE-TEX membrane to keep feet dry in wet conditions while 37.5® technology helps regulate temperature for longer comfort on the trail. The Sock-Fit XT construction and extended lacing deliver a secure, customizable fit that reduces internal movement. The ABS Precision sole with Bascula Adaptive System integrates rigid and pivoting elements to control foot placement and improve balance on uneven surfaces, while the MONT-VIBRAM compound outsole is engineered for grip and targeted flex on irregular terrain.

Suitable for

• Day hikes and multi-day trekking on mixed terrain

How to use

Select the correct EU size (this model is shown here in size 44) and adjust the extended lacing from the ankle to the toe to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. Use the Sock-Fit XT construction to position the foot so the tongue and flex point sit naturally with your foot movement. For wet conditions, rely on the GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane to maintain dryness while the 37.5® treatment helps regulate microclimate inside the boot. When traversing steep or uneven ground, allow the Bascula Adaptive System in the sole to assist in balance and controlled foot placement.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, break in the boots gradually on shorter hikes before committing to multi-day treks. Clean off mud and debris after use and treat the Perwanger leather with products recommended for water-repellent leathers to maintain breathability and water resistance. Use suitable socks to complement the Sock-Fit XT system and reduce friction.
