Materials

Nubuck leather

The outer material of the Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL is made of nubuck leather. Nubuck leather comes from the lightly sanded top layer of the animal hide. Sanding makes the leather feel softer, increases breathability and gives the leather a velvety appearance. Nubuck leather can be waxed, but it can also be left untreated. If you wax nubuck leather, it will become darker, smoother and shinier. When you spray nubuck leather with a spray containing wax, you treat this material in the best way.

 

suede

The outer material of the Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL is made of suede. Suede comes from the base of the animal hide. It has a velvety appearance and a soft feel. Suede can be waxed, but it can also be left untreated.

Chrome-free leather

The liner of the Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL is made of chrome-free leather. Leather is often tanned using chromium-containing minerals. People who are sensitive to chromium can suffer from allergic contact eczema when they come into contact with this leather. Chrome-free leather is tanned without the use of chromium-containing minerals. Hikers with an allergy to chromium will therefore not suffer from contact dermatitis when wearing the Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL .

Fit

Bunion reads

The Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL has a bunion last. The bunion last has been specially developed for people with hallux valgus. A hallux valgus is a deformity of the big toe. The big toe is skewed towards the other toes. This creates a lump on the outside of the big toe, also called a bunion. This bunion can cause a lot of pain when pressure is applied, for example when wearing shoes. The bunion last gives extra space to the joint of the big toe and thus prevents pain while wearing the Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL .

Insole

The Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL has a standard insole from Hanwag. This is a quick-drying, removable insole that contributes to extra comfort while walking. The Hanwag standard insole is also available separately in our store and on our website . We also sell custom insoles that provide extra support.

outsole

Like many hiking boots, the Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL a VIBRAM ® outsole. Vibram soles are known for their high quality and durability and are therefore often used in hiking boots. These soles ensure a good settlement of the foot. The profile of the sole has been developed in such a way that it provides good grip on different surfaces. In addition, the profile of the sole is self-cleaning. This means that the sole does not retain mud and soil. Because Vibram soles are durable, they last longer than other soles.

If the sole of your hiking boots is worn out, they need to be replaced. Worn soles are a risk when walking. Because the profile of the sole disappears, the grip decreases and you slip faster. It is only difficult to say goodbye to hiking boots that fit perfectly and with which beautiful trips have been made. Especially if you have always maintained your shoes well, the upper material of the shoe will last longer than the sole. The walking shoes can still look fine, but because the sole is worn out, they are no longer used for walks. It is with a heavy heart that walkers say goodbye to their favorite shoes. The big advantage of the Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL is that they can be resoled. If the soles of the Hanwag Alta Bunion II Lady LL wear out in the future, so you don’t need to throw them away. We are happy to offer the service to have your shoes resoled. Bring your shoes or send them to us. We can then see if we can provide them with a new, original outsole.
