Though it can handle well-defined trails with ease, the SCARPA Women’s Zodiac Plus GTX Hiking Boot is most at home in technical, rocky terrain where traction and responsiveness are paramount. It weighs less than a traditional mountaineering-oriented boot, so it eats up those long sections of trail, but when it comes time to scramble up rocky ridges and shimmy across slick granite slabs, the stiff, sticky sole, low-bulk yet supportive construction, and performance fit work together to keep you securely moving towards the summit. Innovation and tradition share equally deep roots at SCARPA, a muti-generational, family-owned business whose headquarters and manufacturing facilities are in the same region of northern Italy where it was founded in 1938. SCARPA builds performance footwear for climbing, hiking, skiing, mountaineering, trail-running and other outdoor pursuits. Aside from being the Italian word for "shoe," SCARPA is an acronym for Societa Calzaturiera Asolana Riunita Pedemontana Anonima (Associated Shoe Manufacturing Company of the Asolo Mountain Area).

Vibram Mont Outsole | Designed to perform at low temperatures, this firm, sticky, and durable rubber compound has been tested on the world’s highest peaks. Sock-Fit DV System | SCARPA added water-resistant, breathable Shoeller elastic fabric to the tongue and flex point for a snug, midfoot-hugging fit. Abrasion Resistant | The rubber rand around the perimeter of the boot paired with the suede upper withstands abrasion and offers added protection for your feet. GORE-TEX Performance Comfort | Enjoy waterproof protection in changing weather conditions without sacrificing breathability or durability. For Mountain Travel | A blend between a hiking boot and a technical mountain boot, the lower-volume women’s-specific Zodiac shines on rocky scrambles and terrain where traction and responsiveness are of the utmost importance. Shaft measures approximately 5.5" from arch. Rubber sole. Imported.
