LaCrosse Aerohead Boot receives Outdoor Life Award
PORTLAND, Ore. – LaCrosse® Footwear is thrilled to announce its new AeroHead boot as the recipient of Outdoor Life magazine’s “Great Buy Award” for 2013. The announcement appears in the September 2013 issue.
In order to be considered for the Great Buy Award, a product must deliver the best value in its category, enduring notoriously rigorous tests by Outdoor Life’s test team. Superior performance and unmatched value earned the AeroHead the Great Buy Award.
“Outdoor Life’s ratings give you the unbiased and accurate truth on outdoor gear,” said Andrew McKean, Editor of Outdoor Life. “Products are thoroughly tested and winning items earn the title based exclusively on the hard data and scores. So when we say a particular item is the best, you can take that to the bank.”
More than four years in development and tested over 4,000 miles, the AeroHead™ is truly a revolutionary hunting boot. It is constructed with patent-pending AeroForm™ technology featuring a molded polyurethane shell, which is more durable, puncture resistant, flexible, insulating and lightweight than rubber. The outsole is chemically bonded to the upper as part of the mold injection process, leaving no opportunity for cracking or splitting.
“The LaCrosse team is honored to be recognized with the Great Buy Award by such a renowned publication,” said Ryan Cade, Product Line Manager for LaCrosse Hunt. “The AeroHead boot reflects the work and leadership of our dedicated team here at LaCrosse that strives to offer compelling innovations that make the hunting experience more successful. We are confident that those who choose to field this boot will agree this recognition was highly merited.”
Additional features include LaCrosse’s Ankle Fit technology for a secure fit, an integrated shank under the arch of the foot, which provides the ultimate support while climbing in and out of tree stands and an adjustable back gusset for personalized fit. LaCrosse Brush Tuff bi-directional material on the upper provides abrasion resistance, which combined with the patent-pending shin guard design, ensures protection against brush and briars. The AeroHead is available in Realtree® and Mossy Oak® camo patterns and 3.5mm and 7.0mm styles, ranging in cost from $129.95 - $139.95.
