TX4 R Approach Shoe - Men's

Why We Like The La Sportiva TX4 R Approach Shoe

Paying tribute to La Sportiva's origins, the TX4 R Approach Shoe features a patented resole platform for an even longer life to further reduce the waste we produce. The tough leather upper molds to our foot and holds strong on rugged approaches, while the sole's biting Impact Brake System and the midsole's firm shank stabilize our stride on rolling, uneven terrain. When we reach the wall, the STB Control System's torsional rigidity and the forefoot's Climbing Zone Platform give us the support and bite we need to hop right onto a warmup. Plus, this special edition comes complete with retro branding and a throwback-styled box.
