La Sportiva TX5 Evo Mid GTX Hiking Boots Carbon/Yellow Size 44.5

Hiking boots that combine a nubuck leather upper with a GORE-TEX Extended Comfort lining for waterproof, breathable performance on demanding trails. The Vibram MegaGrip outsole with Impact Brake System delivers exceptional traction on both wet and dry surfaces, while the compression-moulded EVA midsole and Ortholite Hybrid footbed provide all-day cushioning and support.

Advantages

The TX5 Evo Mid GTX offers a protective rubber rand and toe cap for durability against rocks and debris. Its mid-cut design stabilizes the ankle on uneven terrain, and the co-moulded stabilizing insole enhances torsional rigidity without sacrificing comfort. The GORE-TEX membrane keeps feet dry in wet conditions while allowing moisture to escape, preventing overheating during high-output hikes.

Suitable for

• Day hiking and multi-day backpacking with moderate loads
• Technical approach routes requiring reliable grip
• Wet or muddy trails where waterproofing is essential
• Hikers seeking a balance of support and flexibility
