SALEWA Wildfire 2 GTX Approach Shoes Fluo Orange/Black UK 10 (EU 44.5)

The SALEWA Wildfire 2 GTX is a high-performance approach shoe designed for technical terrain, scrambling, and hiking. Combining a precise climbing fit with GORE-TEX Extended Comfort waterproofing, it keeps your feet dry and comfortable in wet conditions. The Pomoca Speed MTN outsole delivers excellent grip on rock and mixed surfaces, while the Switchfit adjustment system allows you to switch from a relaxed walking fit to a precise climbing fit with a simple pull of the lace.

Advantages
