ROA Hiking Boots & Shoes

Roa - a short history of the brand

Roa is one of the youngest brands selling trekking shoes. It was founded only a couple years ago in 2015. From the beginning, Roa’s priority was to create advanced technological gloves, combining them with uniquely designed shoes. The brand wanted to create shoes that work just as good as they look - and they did. As it turns out, Roa’s unique appearance and functionality was just what people wanted, making them a highly sought-after luxury brand. Roa doesn’t stop with just technology and quality materials - the brand keeps experimenting with new gloves to increase the shoes’ functionality and implements new designs that stand out from the rest of outdoor shoes.

Technologies used in Roa shoes

For maximum functionality, Roa’s outdoor shoes use only high-quality materials and proprietary mechanisms. Some of the technologies you might spot in Roa shoes are:

• Vibram sole - a combination of special materials that guarantee increased grip, which is incredibly important for versatile trekking shoes for use in a range of conditions. The special formula allows the sole to provide stability on both dry and wet terrain. It has also been designed to function in high, even extreme heat. This makes Roa shoes perfect for any weather and landscape, allowing nothing to surprise you;
• Incorrect heel counter - specifically designed to provide maximum stability on varied terrain, this advanced heel counter will protect you from injury in all conditions;
• Protection from dirt and stains - the advanced design of the upper and tongue increase your comfort when trekking. The tongue is connected to the upper, protecting the inside of the shoe from mud and dirt;
• EVA foam - for advantage shock absorption, which is extremely important on a variety of hard surfaces like rocks or an asphalt road. Proper cushioning also helps when climbing down, taking the stress off your joints and helping prevent injuries.

The upper in Roa shoes can be made out of a range of materials - from classic, natural leathers like suede or full-grain leather, to synthetic materials, to canvas. The use of high-quality materials keeps your feet well ventilated, and you won’t have to worry about abrasions when trekking long distance.

Roa - more than just trekking shoes

Even though Roa boots were primarily designed as outdoor shoes, similar to brands like Caterpillar, they can also be used for casual everyday outfits. Given the unique design of Roa shoes, they’ve become extremely popular in casual fashion. Even though the brand offers a selection of more classic-looking models, they also sell a range of unusual designs and fascinating colours. Roa breaks the convention of trekking shoes, giving them their unique personality and combining functionality with appearance.
