TCX Jupiter 4, short boots Gore-Tex

JUPITER 4 GORE-TEX® is now the fourth generation of the cult boot JUPITER. In fact, the model, which is unique on the market so far, continues to be very popular due to its extremely high wearing comfort and its sporty, refined, yet discreet look. The model scores with a slim shape and guarantees maximum comfort even when walking thanks to a mid-cut shaft and ergonomically shaped waistband. JUPITER 4 GORE-TEX® is thus ideal for anyone looking for a waterproof shoe with an urban look.

The high-performance GORE-TEX® membrane "Extended Comfort Footwear" also impresses with its exceptionally breathable structure. Corresponding breathability is also provided by the new suede upper with elements of CORDURA® fabric and internal and external micro-injected inserts, which give the model a certain dynamism. At the same time, despite its lightweight and dynamic look, the shoe offers optimal protection, with new microinjected inserts in the ankle area, special reinforcements on the toes and heel, and shift reinforcement.

The functional closure combination of laces and Velcro with microinjected insert for a better grip allows you to put on and take off quickly. The sole, perfectly integrated into the design of the upper, has different grip areas for maximum grip and high wear resistance. The safety of the boot is certified according to the EN 13634:2015 standard.

Gore-Tex® membrane

This fine material has important features such as long-term waterproofing, excellent resistance to the most extreme temperatures and high wear resistance.

The special microporous structure of the GORE-TEX fabric, made from expanded PTFE, contains around 1.4 billion microscopic pores per square centimeter. These pores are approximately 20,000 times smaller than a drop of water, but 700 times larger than a molecule of water vapor.

While water cannot penetrate the GORE-TEX membrane in liquid form, perspiration (water vapor) can easily evaporate. The result is a completely waterproof barrier that means the shoe can be used in all climates and guarantees maximum comfort and optimal breathability.

Ortholite® foot bed

Experience the comfort of the foot beds made with OrthoLite® PU foam.

Long-term cushioning: OrthoLite® foam compresses less than 5% of its thickness over the lifetime of the footbed, so the cushioning, fit, comfort and performance never change.

High level breathability: the open-cells of the OrthoLite® foam, allows air to circulate in and around the footbed, moving the moisture away and keeping the foot cooler and drier.
