What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "The Puez 2 Mid PTX surprised me with how naturally it handled everything from rocky trails to city pavement. The cushioning is dialed thanks to the dual-density EVA, and I love how the Edging Plate gives me flex where I want it but still keeps things stable underfoot. It's lightweight, supportive, and ready for anything."Some days take us deep into the backcountry, and others lead through cobbled streets—either way, the Salewa Puez 2 Mid PTX Boot keeps us steady, comfortable, and protected from the ground up. It brings a progressive blend of alpine capability and modern design, wrapping our feet in rugged ripstop polyester with full-rand protection and a waterproof-breathable Powertex® membrane that’s built for unpredictable conditions. Salewa built this boot with a long-distance trekking mindset, pairing a supportive fit with lightweight comfort. The dual-density EVA midsoles offer graded cushioning with a softer heel zone for smoother landings. The recycled CFF footbed and included Volume Reducer let us dial in a customized fit, while the Pomoca™ Alpine Trekker outsole grips with confidence across varied terrain. Inside, the Salewa Edging Plate II stabilizes each stride without limiting natural movement. Kevlar®-reinforced 3F cables and climbing lacing enhance midfoot and ankle hold, rounding out a design made for mountain mileage and urban versatility alike.
