Building on experience as the sole producer of US and Canadian armed forces Extreme Cold Weather (ECW) Boots, AirBoss has introduced the next generation of ECW footwear.
Extensive user trials were carried out in the Canadian Rockies and Pakistani Himalayas with initial prototypes. User feedback was extremely positive and data collected during these trials was used to finalise features and design.
100% waterproof, yet breathable, the AirBoss ECW Boot uses a proprietary combination of insulating materials that have been chosen following extensive testing at AirBoss and independent laboratories. Using this multi-layer, double liner system, results in excellent thermal insulation (-54C, 8 hours protection) making this boot ideal for all weather conditions (0C to -54C) in wet or dry operations.Much lighter that other footwear in its category, the AirBoss ECW Boot has a traction outsole that assures good grip on slippery surfaces, has a tall snow-guard on top of its 14 inch upper and provides superior ankle support due to its unique inner heal locking design.
