LeMieux Shoc Air Xc Boots Hind

LeMieux Shoc Air Xc Boots Hind

Representing the cutting edge of cross-country protection and design the new ShocAir boots combine the latest developments in material and fabric advancement. These specialist performance boots have been designed to withstand the rigours of cross-country. Vented EVA mould technology gives pliable strength and air flow to the outer shell. Whilst optimum strike protection is provided by a new impact responsive smart layer between the tendon and the outer boot. This Shoc smart layer is composed of impact responsive Dilettante material containing free-form molecules that remain supple and flexible when not under pressure. Howe haver at the point of impact the molecules articulate and lock together forming a hard protective shock absorbing barrier only returning to a flexible state when pressure is released.

This elusive combination of strike protection and tendon support combined with flexibility and air flow come together in one lightweight boot. The ShocAir from LeMieux is truly setting new standards in flexible cross-country protection.

Rigid tendon guards are now replaced by vertical strips of Shock Impact Responsive material that remains pliable until point of impact.

The forward facing outer air vents and inner lining of 3D mesh optimises breathability. Complimented by a soft stretch cotton inner lining to ensure comfort and prevent rubbing.

Individual boot weight = max 295g

IMPORTANT FITTING INFORMATION

Please be aware that correct fitting is essential for the optimum use of Shoc Air Boots. To achieve a safe and secure fit these cross-country boots need to be put on firmly. Remove from packaging and squeeze the strike guards between fingers to shape prior to putting on. The guards are often flattened when packaged and need to be made more pliable for best fitting.
Place the strike guard at the back of the tendon with a cupped hand.
Firmly apply the top middle and bottom straps in succession
Once happy with position of boots go back and re-tighten the middle moulding-strap with its elasticated section. This is very important as it takes up any slack in the boot where the leg is narrower and prevents rotation.
The bottom strap should be slightly angled down to ensure best fit round the fetlock.
Note Due to the structure of the boot and the nature of the Shoc Impact Responsive material it is difficult to over-tighten these boots.
