The super fabric ® used all around the uppers secures a long lasting shoe for all the challenges you will face in the forest. All orienteering shoes also have a protective mudguard around the split line between upper and sole with extra reinforcement on the toebox.
Super Fabric ® material developed for the U.S. military, featuring ceramic reinforcement on the outer layer. It is a material with a good track record in terms of durability.
Whether a shoe lasts forever or a season depends greatly on the individual runner. However, the foundation of the shoe and its construction are designed with long-term durability in mind.
Stress-Reliefing Heel
The heel counter has an “U-shape” which creates stability in sideways but still reliefes the heel from hard pressure. To secure the fit in the shoe, there is an extra padding section at the back.
Outsole x Options
Barku offers two different outsoles, one with integrated carbide steel studs STD (studded) and one with butyl rubber mix RBR (rubber). Product name indicates what type the shoe has.
Size Guide
For the best fit, measure your foot at home before ordering. It takes 2 minutes. Place a sheet of paper on the floor against a wall. Put on the same socks you would wear with these shoes. Stand on the paper with your heel touching the wall, foot straight. Ask someone to mark the tip of your longest toe. Repeat both feet — use the longer measurement. Measure heel to mark in cm. Find your size in the chart below. If between sizes, always go larger.▸ How to measure your foot
