No approach shoe combines protection and performance like the Boulder X
Sticky Vibram® rubber provides traction on approaches, while the solid mid-soles
keep your feet protected on full days at the crag. Suitable for technical approach routes and
via ferrata thanks to the extra-grip sole and the toes designed specifically for crag climbing.
Super sticky approach shoe designed for high performance protection.
La Sportiva have tweaked the designs of proven technology from years past to produce the Boulder X.
Additional padding underfoot for long approaches and super sticky rubber add deluxe comfort and performance.
The Vibram Idro-Grip compound stays sticky on all types of rock even when wet.
The all leather uppers and sticky rubber toe rands offer durable protection.

Great product but also great service. No hassle return and exchange to get the right size. 👌
Excellent design for me, very good friction of the sole means no slipping on a variety of surfaces , good for challenging walks for this ex-rock climber. They keep my feet dry over their full life in a wet climate, unlike all other walking shoes I have bought, which failed in this aspect within 3 months.
The upper leather on my last previous two pairs was poor, and ripped with age, however they did last 4 years as my only footware, so pretty good, really. These are the fourth pair I have had , and they will last as well as the others. The best of all round shoes.
