Arc’teryx始祖鸟科技户外鞋类系列产品抢先看

ITS has spent the in  last few daysChamonix, France with our a peers attending the worldwide launch of the Arc’teryx Technical Performance Footwear line. We were given the opportunity to not only get hands on with the new Arc’teryx footwear, but talk one-on-one with the designers and development team that made it all happen

我们在过去的几天里与一个同行在法国加穆尼克斯谷参加了始祖鸟科技户外鞋类系列全球发布会。我们不仅获得了直接接触始祖鸟鞋类产品的机会，还与产品开发团队的设计师们进行了一对一的访谈。

Footwear is a whole new category for the Canadian based company and one that’s four years in the making. From what we’ve seen here, these new Arc’teryx shoes represent a truly innovative shift in performance footwear.

对于这家加拿大公司，鞋类产品是一个全新的类别，并经历了4年的发展。从我们在这里看到的情况来看，始祖鸟的新鞋对于户外鞋类产品来说有了一个真正的革新性的提升。

Arc’teryx Adaptive Fit

始祖鸟自适应拟合

What makes this Arc’teryx Technical Performance Footwear line unique is the out-of-the-box thinking in the way footwear is manufactured. Lets first break down the Arc’teryx Adaptive Fit technology found in the flagship models of the Alpha2 FL and Bora2, which feature a removable “bootie”. It’s in this that we start looking at all the potential this new design unlocks.

使得始祖鸟科技性能鞋类产品如此独特的原因之一是采用了创造性发散思维来解决在生产制造过程中遇到的障碍。让我们首先来分析下在其旗舰产品Alpha2 FL和Bora2中所使用的始祖鸟自适应拟合技术，其特点是采用了可穿脱的“短靴（套）”。从这里我们将看到所有崭新设计的解密。

The inner bootie is a full-stretchable and removable Gore-Tex liner that not only provides a waterproof surface, but a breathable one as well. The breathability comes from the micro air-space created between the shell and liner which acts as a conduit for air exchange and moisture dispersion.

内鞋套是一个具有全伸缩性的GTX活动衬套，防水透气两不误。透气性来自于在外壳与内衬之间建立的一层微空气空间，就像一道道为空气交换和水分扩散准备的导管。

It’s important to note here that there are models of this new footwear that still retain the inherent features of the bootie, without it being removable; more to follow on this later. With the removable inner bootie design, there exists the potential of reducing hot spots from friction that eventually lead to blisters, due to the liner and outer moving as two separate pieces.

这里要重点说明的是这双新鞋子仍然保持着那些不可拆卸的靴子的固有特性，接下
来会有更多的后续报道。有了可穿脱的内衬套设计，存在减少会导致水泡的摩擦
热点的可能性，这归功于衬套和外套分成了两个独立运动的部分。

Another amazing feature is that the the removable liner has its own rubberized sole, so you’ve now got a built-in pair of camp shoes after a long day of moving on technical terrain. The liners can be dried in a sleeping bag overnight, or even tossed into the washing machine to clean them when you get home. There’s also the ability to interchange the low-cut liners of the shoes with the taller mid-version of the boots to further keep the elements out.

另一个令人惊奇的特性是可穿脱的内衬套拥有独立的橡胶靴底，这样一来你在经历了一整天的全地形行走之后就有了一双内置的营地鞋。内衬套能放在在睡袋里通宵干燥，或者是回到家后将它扔进洗衣机里。同时你也能将低腰的内衬套换成更高的中腰靴子的版本，以进一步保证抵御风雨侵蚀的能力。

By completely eliminating the tongue found in traditional footwear construction, Arc’teryx was able to maximize the waterproof surface area with the removable liner as well. The potential exists to just toss a mid-size liner into the Alpha2 FL and have an even taller option to keep water out of shoes during shallow water crossings. We have confirmed an insulated mid-cut liner will be available as an add-on product.

依靠完全抛弃传统鞋类产品的鞋舌的设计，始祖鸟利用可穿脱的内衬套已经实现了防水表面的最大化。潜在的可能性是在Alpha2 FL 中放置一个中型的或是更高一些的活动内衬套，以在溯溪时保持鞋内干燥。

Outer Shell Construction

外壳结构

Now that you know how the inner footwear functions, let’s talk about the outer shell. The first element is a seamless laminated one-piece upper that’s actually made from four different layers, providing a lightweight and durable solution for the typical abrasion encountered by rock, snow and ice. Despite the four layers used in construction, the upper is still air permeable to keep you cool.

既然你已经知道内衬套的功能，那么让我们来看看外壳。首要元素是由四层不同的膜制造而成的无缝合一体化靴面，在足够轻量的同时还提高了面对岩石、冰雪等典型的磨损时的耐用性。尽管结构上采用了四层膜片的设计，靴面仍然能保持足够的透气性。

The midsole, who’s role is to cushion and support the foot while providing flexibility and precision traction, is made from light EVA foam, chosen for its soft resilient nature, high durability and its ability to absorb shock while providing precision stability.

提供足够的柔韧性和精确的牵引力，起到缓冲及支撑脚部作用的鞋底夹层是由轻量EVA泡沫材料制造，选择这种材料的原因是它自身的弹性恢复特性，高耐磨性，以及在提供精确稳定性的同时还能吸收震动的能力。

This stability comes from a rounded heel strike-zone, which features a Y shape that is assembled without adhesive to allow each side to flex independently of the overall midsole. This allows better cushioning impact on rough, uneven terrain.

这种稳定性来自于圆形的脚后跟击球区，特征是有一个不用黏合剂组装而成的Y型部分，允许整个鞋底夹层的任何一侧进行独立的弯曲变形。这个设计在粗糙不平的地形上能带来更好的减震效果。

Arc’teryx also custom designed the Ortholite footbed to maximize comfort, breathability and arch support.

始祖鸟同时也定制设计了欧士莱（Ortholite，世界级领先的PU泡棉供应商，与很多的鞋类大公司进行联合销售）鞋垫以最大化舒适度、透气性和足弓支撑性。

Rather than simply wrap heel and toe caps around the shoe and glue them in place, Arc’teryx produced molded three-dimensional caps that are individually crafted for each size shoe. This resists cracking, prevents collapsing and adds protection to the most exposed areas of the upper and midsole.

始祖鸟为每一个尺寸的鞋子单独制作了模压3维鞋包头，而不是简单地将鞋头和鞋跟包裹起来并用胶水固定。这样能抵御开裂，预防断裂，并增加对鞋帮和鞋底夹层上最暴露区域的保护。

Tying it all together are two different outsoles that are activity specific. The Vibram Arc’teryx Approach Outsole is found on the Alpha shoes and is designed with anti-slip lugs and mountaineering heel tread.

两种不同的鞋子大底同时在用。Alpha鞋上的始祖鸟Vibram Approach（登山）大底设计有防滑耳及登山脚踏。

The Vibram Arc’teryx Hiking Outsole is found on the Bora Hiking Boots and features traction groves with a high-grip mountaineering perimeter and heel tread.

Bora远足靴上的始祖鸟Vibram Hiking（徒步）大底特点是带有高抓地力的登山包边和脚踏的牵引式包裹。

Footwear Models

鞋型

There are five primary styles of footwear that Arc’teryx will be releasing in Spring of 2015. Low-cut approach shoe options include the Alpha FL and Alpha FL GTX (with Gore-Tex) in both men’s and women’s versions, as well as the top of the line Alpha2 FL with removable Gore-Tex liner in just a men’s version. Just to note again the Alpha FL and Alpha FL GTX will not have removable liners.

始祖鸟将会在2015年春季发布五款鞋型。低帮徒步鞋包括男女款式的Alpha FL 和Alpha FL GTX (带Gore-Tex) ，顶级的带有可穿脱内衬套的Alpha2 FL仅有男款。提醒一下Alpha FL 和 Alpha FL GTX是没有可穿脱内衬套的。

Mid-cut hiking boots round out the last two styles and are available in the Bora2 Mid with removable Gore-Tex liner and Bora Mid GTX with non-removable Gore-Tex liner. There’s also an insulated Gore-Tex liner available to replace the liner in the Bora2 if you need a little more warmth.

中帮远足靴有两个型号，Bora2 Mid （带可穿脱内衬套）和 Bora Mid GTX（带不可穿脱内衬套）。如果你需要足部更加暖和的话也有一个隔热的GTX内衬套可供Bora2选择。

The Bora Mid GTX comes in both men’s and women’s versions, but like the Alpha2 FL, the Bora2 Mid are only available in a men’s version. As mentioned earlier, an insulated Gore-Tex bootie is available separately to upgrade the bootie in the Bora if you need added insulation, or want to add them to a pair of the approach shoes.

Bora中帮GTX同时发售男女款，但和Alpha2 FL一样，Bora2中帮只会有男款。就像前面提到的，如果你需要提高足部保暖性能，Bora靴有一个隔热的GTX内衬套来进行升级，也可以将它放到徒步鞋上使用。
