At SCARPA, our PRESA® soles are developed entirely in-house by our R&D team to meet the specific demands of each shoe. From trekking to trail running and everyday wear, every activity requires different performance features — and every sole is built with that in mind.
Each PRESA® sole is engineered for its end use, with key performance indicators tested in depth — including:
Grip on wet and dry terrain
Durability and resistance to wear
Comfort and control during movement
The midsole is carefully crafted from materials with specific densities and inserts, creating the ideal balance between control, precision, and cushioning.
Smarter Tread Patterns
Tread design plays a huge role in performance. Strategic placement of self-cleaning lugs and channels improves grip for both thrust and braking, while also shedding mud and debris efficiently.
High-Performance Compounds
Our compounds are formulated specifically for the outdoors, delivering maximum performance in all conditions and on every terrain — without compromising on durability.
