La Sportiva Olympus Mons Cube - Olympus Mons Cube is the ultimate in technology for thermal alpinism in the Himalayas, inland ice crossings and extreme operations in very cold conditions. It is the first high-altitude mountain boot that is compatible with tech bindings thanks to its insert on the toe for skialp bindings, making it the ideal footwear for crossings at the South and North Poles.
With its advanced solutions it guarantees: thermal, Lightness, quick on and off, safety and water repellency. From a technological point of view, it contains the latest of the latest and is produced directly in the production center in Fiemme Valley, at the foot of the Dolomites. The new model has little external volume, but it is still a warm expedition boot with a removable liner that is lighter than its predecessor. This certainly makes it the lightest shoe in its category. The super clean and seamless design comes from the thermal welds on the inside and the UltraSound Welded technology, which allows materials to be seamlessly joined together. Thanks to the corner zip zipper along the entire gaiter, it can be opened completely, making it easier to access the inner shoe with its quick BOA Fit System closures, which can easily be operated even with gloves.
The two BOA closures enable differentiated lacing at the top/bottom of the inner shoe. The thermal liner has been equipped with an additional insulating layer. It can be easily removed for easier drying, for example in base camp. The incredible lightness is also thanks to the Vibram Litebase + Vibram Morflex sole, which has high insulating properties and combines die-cut rubber, with a specific fabric layer to reduce rubber and uses an exclusive combination of abrasion-resistant expansion materials.
