The TX4 Evo Mid GTX Men by La Sportiva is a waterproof leather shoe from the Approach Traverse X series, designed for use on alpine approaches and sporty via ferratas. It is perfect for those who spend long hours in the mountains or climbing and want to rely on a weatherproof, stable shoe. The robust TX4 features a soft leather outer shell, which, along with the spacious yet snug-fitting forefoot area, creates a fit that balances the comfort of a well-fitting climbing shoe with the ease of a hiking shoe. The Gore-Tex Extended Comfort lining ensures dry feet, even in wet conditions.
The upper provides additional stability in rugged terrain while maintaining a flexible zone in the ankle area for freedom of movement during scrambling, despite the mid-height design. The Vibram MegaGrip sole offers excellent grip on the mountain, and the integrated Impact Brake System at the back enhances control during descents. This La Sportiva model also includes a Climbing Zone in the toe area, adding versatility for navigating smaller climbing passages and challenging terrain.
To ensure durability on stony paths, the shoe features an all-round scree protection edge on the robust upper leather. It also has a Resole Platform in the midsole, allowing for easy resoling without sacrificing comfort. The lacing system, derived from the Mythos climbing shoe, enables quick and precise adjustments. When it's time to climb vertically, the shoes can be easily attached to a harness using the loop on the heel. In summary, the TX4 Evo Mid GTX from La Sportiva is a reliable, robust, and weatherproof approach and light hiking shoe, ready for your next adventure.
