Key features of the SCARPA Golden Gate LT WP

• SCARPA Waterproof system: Integrated waterproof protection combined with technical mesh keeps feet dry in wet and muddy conditions while maintaining breathability.
• Midsole with 20% Pebax®: A combination of traditional EVA foam and innovative Pebax® material provides long-lasting cushioning, smooth weight transfer and responsiveness with every step.
• Presa® outsole: A dedicated tread pattern offers reliable grip on varied and slippery outdoor terrain.
• Stretch gaiter: The specially designed upper edge of the shoe prevents stones, mud and dirt from getting inside while running.
• Low drop (6 mm): The height difference between the heel (30 mm) and forefoot (24 mm) encourages a more natural running stride while maintaining a high level of cushioning.

In practice

In rainy weather and on muddy trails, the SCARPA Waterproof system keeps feet dry, while the stretch gaiter effectively blocks dirt and small stones from getting inside.

On longer everyday runs on forest trails, the EVA foam midsole with 20% Pebax® material reduces leg fatigue and ensures soft, smooth heel-to-toe transitions.
