Description
Tactical Boot for Hot, Humid Environments
The XA Forces Jungle is an exceptionally lightweight tactical boot designed for operations in challenging environments such as jungles, where heat and humidity pose significant challenges. This modern boot builds on the experience from previous models in the XA Forces series, combining athletic performance with practical tactical features for rapid missions.
Material Design and Functionality
The upper of the XA Forces Jungle boot is made from thin, robust, and quick-drying materials, including mesh and PU-coated leather, specifically selected for the harsh conditions of jungle environments. This combination ensures durability and quick drying, crucial in wet conditions. To further improve moisture management, the design includes drainage holes and perforated padding, accelerating water expulsion and air circulation to minimize heat and moisture retention.
Mesh Materials
The boot uses both an anti-debris mesh and a single mesh layer close to the foot. The anti-debris mesh is tightly woven and prevents dirt, sand, and other particles from entering the boot and injuring the foot. In contrast, the single-layer mesh is designed for maximum tactile perception and breathability, enhancing the boot's comfort and effectiveness in keeping the feet dry and cool.
PU-Coated Leather
With a thickness of 1.3 mm, the PU-coated leather provides additional strength and durability, making it more resistant to wear and tear. This coating not only protects the leather but also contributes to the boot's overall water resistance, ensuring longevity and performance in wet and muddy conditions.
Quick Drying Mesh and Non-Reflective Materials
The quick-drying mesh used in parts of the upper is crucial for operations where frequent water contact occurs, as it allows the boot to shed water quickly and maintain a lighter weight. Non-reflective materials are used throughout to ensure stealth capabilities in tactical scenarios, keeping the wearer discreet and less visible to opponents.
Specialized Features for Tactical Efficiency
SensiFit System
The SensiFit technology wraps the foot from the midsole to the lacing system, providing a secure, snug, and almost custom fit. This feature is crucial in challenging terrains where a precise fit increases stability and reduces the risk of injuries.
Protective Elements
The boot includes a 3D rubber cap and a protective mudguard. The toe cap offers protection from impacts in rugged terrain, while the mudguard protects the lower end of the foot against lateral and medial impacts.
Lacing System
Traditional laces are complemented by closed hooks to prevent entanglement in vegetation or obstacles. A lace pocket on the tongue allows for the secure stowage of excess lace, ensuring that nothing hangs out or hinders movement during rapid or covert maneuvers.
Sole Construction
The sole of the XA Forces Jungle is designed for performance and stability.
Outsole
The Contagrip MA outsole is specifically designed for a wide range of surfaces and offers an optimal balance between durability and traction. It is made from a special rubber compound that takes into account both the geometry and the rubber quality, providing reliable grip on wet, dry, hard, or loose surfaces, ensuring safety and stability across various terrains by not only being durable but also offering the necessary traction to prevent slipping and falls.
The integration of the Enigma Zero HT2 anti-puncture insert is critical for jungle operations, where the risk of puncture from sharp objects is high. This non-metallic layer prevents the penetration of sharp elements and ensures the wearer's safety.
Midsole
The dual-density midsole is a key component in Salomon's high-performance shoes, consisting of two foam layers with different densities that work together to provide optimal support and high comfort. The softer foam provides excellent cushioning and absorbs shock forces, which is particularly important for dynamic activities such as running or jumping.
At the same time, the harder foam provides the necessary stability and support to properly align the foot and prevent overuse, enhancing the efficiency of movement and minimizing the risk of injuries.
3D Chassis
The 3D Chassis, placed between the outsole and midsole of the Salomon XA Forces Mid EN, plays a central role in optimizing motion control and energy management. This low-profile chassis helps to increase stability while preserving flexibility, allowing the wearer to perform precise and responsive movements.
Insole
The OrthoLite insole enhances comfort, durability, breathability, moisture, and odor control, ensuring a comfortable and healthy foot climate even under harsh conditions.
The XA Forces Jungle boot is tailored for extreme conditions with a focus on quick drying, breathability, and protection, ensuring that even the most challenging missions feel manageable.- SensiFit Fit
