XA Forces Mid GTX EN Black

Salomon XA Forces Mid GTX EN Black

XA Forces MID GTX EN is a all conditions tactical boot designed for precise, fast and agile police or military operations. Based on Salomon's iconic XA PRO 3D, this special forces oriented boot is more durable in every way, and has a beefier outsole.

The ISO-certified XA FORCES MID GTX EN impresses with its aesthetics, light weight and grip, making it a versatile tactical boot.

Boot has minimalistic and strong lace for one-pull tightening. GORE-TEX keeps your feet dry from the outside as well as from the inside. Low-profile chassis helps optimize motion control and energy management.

EN designation means that the soles on these boots have been tested and certified to be slip/oil resistant, puncture-resistant (outsole), and have antistatic properties.

Certifications:

• ISO 20347: 2012 -  Work Shoes without Toe Cap according to EN
• ISO 20344:2011 - Puncture resistant sole. A layer of puncture-resistant material added to the outsole prevents sharp objects from penetrating the bottom of the shoe
  
• ISO NORM 2419:2012 - 2.0 mm thick leather. Thicker than typical shoe leather for increased durability

GORE-TEX

GORE-TEX membrane ensures full water resistance and high breathability:

• Each square inch of the membrane contains 9 billion pores
• Each pore is 20,000 time smaller than a drop of water
• Each pore is 700 time larger than a molecule of water vapor

GORE-TEX in a three-layer variant with a new generation tricot lining offers a very good level of mechanical resistance at low weight.
