Advantages

Combining the stability of a hiking boot with the sensitivity of a climbing shoe, the Crux excels on rocky approaches and via ferrata. The Vibram Vertical Approach outsole with Megagrip compound provides outstanding traction on wet and dry rock, while the extended lace-up system allows for a customized fit. The protective rubber rand shields the toes from abrasion, and the water-resistant suede upper keeps feet dry in damp conditions.
