AKU Tactical® Pilgrim TSC DS boots

AKU Tactical Pilgrim TSC DS boots were developed in cooperation with special forces of the US Army. They are light, breathable and ideal for use in hot climates and desert areas.

Functional materials

The upper is made of very durable 3D nylon fabric AIR 8000. This material, developed by AKU, gives the shoe optimized breathability and fast-drying material properties. Thanks to the use of highly functional water vapor-permeable fabrics, shoes with AIR 8000 shoes can take moisture away up to 11x faster than comparable models made of other materials. Although designed for desert conditions, this shoe is an excellent summer shoe for climates throughout Europe.

Safe step

The AKU IMS midsole creates the perfect balance between control and shock absorption. The Pilgrim TSC DS shoe uppers also have protective ankle pads and protect the feet when rappeling on a so-called Fast Rope. There are anti-puncture insoles inside the boots. The Vibram Curcuma sole is antistatic, non-slip and oil resistant.

Italian quality

Founded in 1955, AKU is a leading Italian manufacturer specializing in the production of high-quality climbing, hiking and military boots. AKU currently has two large factories in Italy and Romania, from which it supplies more than 200,000 pairs of shoes to the world market each year. AKU tactical boots are used by American, British and Italian special forces, as well as the armed forces of Denmark, Norway, Portugal, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
