PRESA®

SOLE CONCEPT

Presa® is the ultimate result of SCARPA’s internal R&D on soles. An environment of exploration and technological innovation, where experience and scientific research merge.

This is the SCARPA approach: an R&D department to study, analyze, and develop the best soles. Here, unique and high-performance products are generated, intended to face a multitude of challenges, from daily use in urban environments to the tortuousness of unexplored peaks. Presa® combines Midsoles, Compounds and Design to get the most out of a sole, it is in fact the careful mix of these three elements that makes Presa® products so innovative.

HOW A SOLE IS BORN

Each Presa® sole is carefully developed thinking about the context of use of the shoe.

Measurement of the main performance indicators (including Grip on dry and wet terrain, and Resistance) is essential in choosing the best sole according to the activity for which the shoe was designed.

The midsole is the result of meticulous research in materials, density and shanks, to create the best compromise between control, precision and comfort. The outsole is designed through study of the correct cap positions for propulsion and breaking needs, and the best construction of the self-cleaning grooves to ensure effective shedding of debris from the sole. The compounds are specifically designed for the outdoor world, for maximum performance in all weather conditions and on all types of terrain without compromising durability.
