About Vasque

During William Sweasy's travels through Europe in the late 60's Vasque sought to get ahead of the hiking craze taking over the mountains of Europe and apply an innovated take for the trekkers in the states. With such ambition came the Voyageur boot inspired by the spirit of those who mastered the Northern Minnesota wildernesses with one step at a time. As one of the first boots under the Vasque name, the Ascender boot began the 40 plus year success climb Vasque has ascended to. Today, Vasque continues the climb with a wealth of coveted awards for high-quality hiking boots and trail running footwear like the Vasque Snow Junkie, selected for an Editor's Choice Snow Award by Backpacker Magazine in 2012. With that, it is safe to say that Vasque's ascent towards innovation in high-quality footwear is nowhere near the peak. And there is much more history yet to be made.

Even so, the quality lineup Vasque offers from trail running shoes like that of the Mindbender to the Bitterroot GTX backpacking boot or even the Snowburban UltraDry insulated boot is sure to take those feet of yours to further than ever before with comfort and one of a kind fit found nowhere else. In doing just that, Vasque utilizes a variety of enhancement tech like the CuShin tongue technology or the Arc Tempo last that creates a tailored athletic fit that gives you an added bit of stability over difficult terrain. With that, the Vasque's Women's Velocity trail running shoe boasts Outside Magazine's 2003 Trail Running Shoe of the Year. And with such performance enhancements to durability, performance and comfort weighing in at 1lb. 50z. — you might have trouble keeping up with the limitless potential the Vasque Velocity trail running shoes provide.
