ADAPTIVE
SHAPE
TECHNOLOGY
At Tecnica, we have always made shoe fit a top priority.
To design and produce footwear with a unique anatomical shape that delivers a superior comfort
fit, with great heel and forefoot retention, we developed
AST – Adaptive Shape Technology.
Advanced Shape Technology is based on three pillars. Using anatomical lasts to match the
ergonomic and biometric needs of mountaineers. Fine-tuning the
perfect width for each mountain activity. Offering specific-gender dedicated designs and
technical features.
This unique technology also benefits from innovations such as adaptive memory foams, pre-shaped
thermoplastic inserts, cushioning and breathable foams, and copolymer foam inserts to maintain
our promise of comfort and performance.
1. ANATOMICAL LAST
Tecnica's shoe design process starts from a realistic anatomical last rather than the simplified traditional one commonly used by the footwear industry.
2. SPECIFIC ACTIVITY FIT
The width and volume of Tecnica's shoes are carefully tuned to deliver the different performances requested by each mountain activity.
3. SPECIFIC GENDER DESIGN
Tecnica's shoes for men and women are developed following the different gender ergonomics and biometrics and tested accordingly.
