Boots Dune-AST
In the winter months and early spring, when everything starts to melt, but it is still cold outside, many people think about shoes that will not only warm, but also will not get wet. It's a pity to wear leather shoes in such weather, so many are looking for alternative and inexpensive options for boots. The Russian manufacturer of PVC footwear Duna-AST offers winter and demi-season models of rubberized footwear. Women's and children's models are especially relevant, because mothers with children walk in different weather conditions.
About company
LLC PKF "Duna-AST" has existed for about 20 years and operates on the basis of a rubber footwear factory in Astrakhan, which has been operating with varying success for over 40 years.
During its existence, the company became one of the first to produce colored rubber shoes, and also used Italian machines to improve the quality of its products. The company has developed and implemented technology for the production of footwear using DU-light materials, which was the first of its kind in the rubber footwear market, and the more modern DU-elastic.
Today the Duna-AST company successfully produces about 200 models of footwear for men, women and children. The firm has partners in some regions, as well as a representative office in many cities of Russia and the CIS countries.
Peculiarities
Dune-AST winter boots consist of two parts. The upper part of the boots is a water-repellent fabric that covers the foam layer. From the inside, the boots are insulated with a nap linen. Thanks to this, the boots retain heat well and allow air to pass through well, allowing the feet to breathe.
The lower part of the boots is a galoshes, which are made of high-tech material DU-light or, in another way, foamed rubber. Thanks to the use of this material, Duna-AST boots have the following properties:
- The foamed rubber remains flexible even at low temperatures.
- Thanks to the use of this material, the boots are soft and practically weightless.
- The lower part is a monolithic structure, so it absolutely does not allow moisture to pass through.
- The outsole is stable and non-slip.
- The sole is covered with a protective layer that protects it from premature wear.
- The boots retain heat for a long time due to the low level of heat transfer.
- The sole of the boots is hypoallergenic, it does not absorb odors and does not contribute to the growth of harmful bacteria.
- Boots can be easily machine washed at a temperature of 30C.
Models
Women's and children's models of this company are quite diverse and are suitable for outdoor activities and are good as shoes for every day. The upper part of the boots can be equipped with a retainer or held on the leg with an elastic band. In children's models, there are boots with a lock on the front or on the side, which is convenient for small children. They can also be equipped with lacing for a tighter fit.
All models have an original and striking design, women's models and boots for girls can be decorated with a floral print. Models for boys have a restrained color scheme: blue, gray and black tones prevail. They can be decorated with a pattern, so they will definitely appeal to little buyers.
Reviews
Most of the reviews about the boots of the Duna-AST company have a positive color. Buyers have worn children's and women's models for more than one season, while the shoes have not lost their original appearance, the sole has not been torn or worn out. The boots are very lightweight, so they are comfortable to run in the street without unnecessary discomfort.
Many buyers believe that Duna-AST winter boots are no worse than more expensive analogs of snow boots and dutik from other manufacturers. Many are attracted by the reasonable price for shoes from this company, and the fact that the shoes are of high quality and durable.
On the negative side, buyers refer to the fact that the inner fur boot cannot be pulled out for the convenience of drying. However, it can be turned out and dried, then refilled. Many people think that the design of the boots of this brand is quite simple and not very attractive, but they are perfect for walking in dirty weather with children.
