History: By adding in more seam shape in our boots& shoes we found out that it did not gave us better fit. The reason; we were using the same last as all our competitors! The Alloy casted lasts determines the shape and fit of neoprene footwear. A neoprene sock is mounted around the last and rubber parts are joined together. The last goes into the oven for the rubber parts to cure, moulding all exactly around the last. Solution: Realizing this we started the search for a better last. We found out that there are no lasts made for active water sports . All lasts available in the market are made for multi purpose usage; like for waders boots or fishing purposes which are static shaped profiles.
More important, OCL last build boots and shoes will have less water entry. You can hear the difference when filled up with water, while other boots suck in water. Neoprene is stretching in the water even more, all boots and shoes of other brands are sucking in water as boots and shoes are not fitting tightly enough around your foot. Prolimit OCL last build boots are making no noise at all. WHY? Simple, OCL last build boots are leaving no air space in the boot which can not be filled up by water! Shape and Technology! More function and better performance!
That made us to decide to built the best last possible for active water sports. Together with a Orthopedic specialist we analyzed different feet and came up with complete new last designs. In the design we incorporated the stretch of the materials, water influence and the dynamic positions of the feet during active water sport. Your feet are made of 26 bones and 214 ligaments! They need proper support! Also during active water sports.
OCL LASTS IS DIFFERENT!
Most of the Prolimit boots and shoes are built using our unique, Prolimit owned, OCL (Orthopedic Controled Last). Nobody in the entire industry made the same effort to go this far! We created the best SHAPE and TECHNOLOGY in a neoprene boot or shoe.
PROFILED HEEL
• Shaft is more raked back for the Dynamic position, • The heel of our OCL lasts are much narrower closing nicely around your Achilles tendon and supporting it,
SWEPT FOOT PROFILE
• Our arch is lower to prevent rolling of the boot around your foot, • Our sole foot arch is pre shaped to fit the natural position of the foot which is not flat
While all other brands in the market are using lasts made from fishing boots Prolimit took the effort to create something which is noticeable when using. We challenge you, do the test yourself!
