From the trails of the GR20 to the forgotten paths of the Pyrenees, the Tecnica Makalu 85 GTX® embodies the spirit of traditional hiking at its noblest. A modern tribute to an iconic model launched in 1985, this shoe combines vintage aesthetics, high-end technologies, and lasting comfort to appeal to purists and new enthusiasts alike.
Designed for long backpacking journeys, it combines the durability of full-grain leather with a waterproof GORE-TEX® membrane to keep feet dry in all conditions. Its Vibram® outsole ensures reliable grip on technical terrains, while its generous fit provides immediate comfort, even after several hours of walking.
Conceived as a nod to mountain heritage but firmly focused on performance and sustainability, the Makalu 85 GTX®R is the ally of demanding hikers seeking a shoe that is both protective, authentic, and eco-conscious.
