Today, adidas TERREX continues its commitment to supporting outdoor exploration with its newest addition to the Skychaser family, the adidas TERREX Skychaser AX5 GORE-TEX.
Designed to provide the protection, control and comfort every adventurer needs to take their hiking experience to the next level, the Skychaser AX5 GORE-TEX represents an entry point to the Skychaser franchise, adidas TERREX’s most technical hiking shoe range. To ensure a snug, reliable fit while out on the trails, the Skychaser AX5 GORE-TEX debuts a new internal construction, featuring two foam pods integrated on both sides of the heel lining to provide a locked-down feeling and comfort when traversing difficult conditions. This is complemented by a new lining that surrounds the heel, which protects the shoe’s GORE-TEX layer from abrasion.
"We're seeing unprecedented enthusiasm for hiking and adidas is determined to supporting adventurers of all levels – helping them to progress towards new goals.” said Tom Louage Global Sr. Product Director Footwear Global Outdoor, adidas. "The Skychaser AX5 GORE-TEX embodies that commitment. By integrating leading performance technologies, we've created a shoe that empowers hikers to have the confidence to push their limits and conquer any trail”.
Alongside its new internal construction, the Skychaser AX5 GORE-TEX features a LIGHTMOTION midsole – made from a lightweight EVA foam – that provides cushioning for all-day comfort and responsiveness in a range of environments. Its Continental™ rubber outsole, built with 4mm lugs, provides traction in both wet and dry conditions, while the shoe’s GORE-TEX layer is guaranteed to keep adventurers dry, with an abrasion-resistant upper for added protection from hard wear.
The Skychaser AX5 GORE-TEX is available for €120 / $120 online at https://www.adidas.com/us/hiking-shoes, on the adidas app and in select retail stores.
