Salewa Wildfire NXT GTX Men's Approach Shoe Black Out/Black EU 42.5

Technical terrain demands a shoe that moves with you, and the Salewa Wildfire NXT GTX delivers a precise, secure fit that sets it apart from typical approach shoes. Its climbing-oriented lacing system extends to the toe for a customized, glove-like feel, while the GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane keeps your feet dry without sacrificing breathability. The Pomoca Speed MTN Pro outsole and dual-density EVA midsole provide the grip and cushioning needed for long approaches and via ferrata routes.
