The Peluva Aspen Winter Boot is here, and opens up a whole new world of year-round barefoot functionality! Believe me, this boot was developed in response to very enthusiastic consumer demand. We’ve received more than a few emails begging us for a cold weather solution. Some offered tongue-in-cheek observations that our Peluva operations and team members are located in Miami, Las Vegas and Southern California. As in, please don’t forget about Peluva enthusiasts in the higher latitudes!
The Aspen Winter Boot project has been a long time in development, largely due to the challenges and nuances involved in straddling the fine line between building something warm and sturdy enough to handle winter conditions and off-road use, while still offering five-toe functionality and groundfeel that is the essence of Peluva.
We think you’ll love this fun and functional shoe with an assortment of design features that will hold up for your most adventurous and rugged use in cold temperatures. There’s really nothing like it on the market! The Aspen Winter Boot features a custom designed, hiking-specific outsole with deep lug traction. Think of how the Strand ATR has an enhanced tread pattern compared to the regular Strands. Well, the Winter Boot is another level of resilience beyond the ATR - your best choice for colder weather rucking, trekking, advanced hiking on your favorite trails, or walking in the village on your ski vacation.
The Aspen has a full grain leather upper with heel-to-ankle overlay reinforcements and a secure hardware lacing system. It’s a perfect blend of sturdy boot construction combined with enough flexibility and groundfeel to qualify as minimalist. Inside is a luxurious fleece liner to lock in warmth and feel soft against your five-toe Peluva socks or even bare feet. Weighing only 11-13 ounces, you have a lightweight, responsive shoe that’s rated to handle temperatures down to freezing, withstand some moisture (not quite waterproof), and handle the most rugged trails and outdoor obstacles.
