The Rassler 2.0 from Astral is an exceptionally grippy and rugged, yet lightweight boot that dries fast and drains quick. The sole is redesigned for improved durability. The mid-cut upper provides extra protection and support. Our best choice for hard-core river users.he
Hidden Laces
There's no better way to secure a shoe to your foot than laces. We've hidden them to keep things tidy.
Insulation
Like neoprene, the 3mm quilted airmesh traps air between you and the waterproof shell. But our mesh dries out overnight, instead of a month.
Flex Grip Outsole
This rubber allows excellent flexibility and sensory feedback for heightened grip and balance. Maximised surface area for high friction on smooth surfaces. Divided lugs for substantial grip on loose dirt. Razor Siping maximises edges that bite into surfaces upon flexion.
Water Ready
All Astral shoes have a special relationship with water. Every component, from the thread to the laces are critically evaluated and chosen for its ability to hold up after constant soaking, to shed water, and not to accumulate funk. Many models have engineered drainage for water to come out while minimizing entry of silt. Water can escape from heel and toes.
Balanced Geometry
We believe that a foot's position in a shoe should be similar to when barefoot. This allows excellent balance and biomechanically natural lifestyle. Foot-beds are essentially level (only 1mm drop from heel to toe) and provide medium arch support. Tapered instep and heel area for better foothold and control. Wide forefoot allows your feet and toes to spread out for stability.
GSS
The "ss" is for "Super Sticky" and we can confidently say that outsoles made with it provide the best grip in water-sports. Unlike other maximum friction compounds, G.ss is non-marking and provides good abrasion resistance. Its low durometer (measure of hardness) lessens impact and provides excellent conformity to surfaces.
Durability
Ballistic Nylon Upper is bonded and Lilo-Stitched directly to rubber Outsole. This is not your average booty construction.
