Upper Architecture and Material Engineering
The construction of the Urbactive moves away from traditional leathers in favor of a synthetic multi-material approach, aimed at maximizing abrasion resistance and dimensional stability.
High-Tenacity Fabric: The main section of the upper utilizes a tightly woven synthetic yarn with a high mechanical resistance coefficient. This material has the distinct advantage of not absorbing water, preventing the shoe from becoming heavy during sessions in the rain.
Microfiber Inserts: Strategically positioned in the flex zones, these guarantee controlled flexibility, allowing for a natural walking motion without compromising the lateral support required during riding.
Gear Shifter Guard: A rubberized polymer insert is thermally applied to the upper toe area. This solution prevents localized wear and ensures millimetric grip on the gear lever.
