The Hanwag Waxenstein Bio is a mid-cut shoe made from chrome-free tanned leather, offering a comfortable fit. This shoe is suitable for everyday wear, leisure activities, and walks on good paths, as well as light hiking in flat terrain.

The stiffness of the sole, the drop (how rounded the sole is to allow for a smooth roll), and the shaft construction primarily determine how a model is positioned within the categories. For this reason, each model features categories A-B-C-D, providing an idea of the shoe's stiffness.

• D = very stiff and fully crampon-compatible (step-in/automatic crampons).
• C = stiff and conditionally crampon-compatible (strap-on/semi-automatic crampons).
• B = firm support and solid, yet flexible sole for trekking and hiking.
• A = soft, very well-flexing construction.

The first fully compostable outsole for mountain and trekking shoes has two different profiles for various applications.
