Cabrio LV Free 105 W

In words

Intro

Cabrio is Dalbello's freetouring line. The 105 W is making its debut this year, with what is without a doubt the softest flex of the LV Free models. The snug fit and robust liner make it comfortable enough to wear for hours on end, and the Pebax tongue is also supportive in walk mode. In descent everything is designed to provide accurate power transmission and the Dynalock system provides solid support to the shin and ankle. Bear in mind that it's pretty heavy for its category.
