Secure grip meets comfort and support

Overview

The Salewa Rapace GTX boot is a lightweight mountaineering boot that teams a hard-wearing nubuck and fabric upper with waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX® protection.

The Rapace GTX features the 3F System for ankle support, flexibility and a perfect fit, and an improved rear ankle mobility thanks to the patented Flex Collar.

Its Vibram WTC outsole has an aggressive tread pattern that gives good traction, yet provides a natural feel and secure grip on rock, and it's coupled with the Bilight midsole providing a long-lasting cushion compared to the traditional sole packs.

Inside the boot, Salewa's Bilight TPU technology in the midsole ensures an ergonomic hold and long-lasting cushioning for extended comfort.

The Rapace GTX is also stiff enough for use with hybrid/semi-automatic crampons.

In addition, the GORE-TEX® Performance Comfort lining delivers optimised climate comfort should the weather close in on you, and there’s a full rubber rand for protection against rock and scree.
