GoLite Redefines Fastpacking for Fall '10
GOLITE FOOTWEAR’S NEW TIMBER LITE BOOT
REDEFINING FAST PACKING FOOTWEAR FOR FALL 2010
Newmarket, NH – New for Fall 2010, the über lightweight Timber Lite joins the line of improbably light, waterproof hikers from GoLite Footwear. As part of the Class 1 collection, the Timber Lite is the penultimate boot for peak bagging: lightweight, stable and protective, yet agile, and boasting new technologies and materials to make even the longest day seem short.
Featuring GoLite Footwear’s new BareTech technology, the Timber Lite utilizes the new Crossover outsole for exceptionally lightweight, low-profile shock attenuation, TPE caging for flexible support and protection, and a resin-impregnated plate for torsional and longitudinal rigidity.
Weighing in at a feathery 15 oz or less, the Timber Lite combines a waterproof high-top silhouette with the best lightweight protection and Soft Against the Ground Technology, to deliver the ride of a trail runner and the performance of a boot. Really, can you ask for anything more in a boot? The Timber Lite is perfect for any adventure, no matter where you go.
