The Dragontail Synth GTX is a shoe that, in contrast to its predecessors, offers significantly more comfort, but has to make concessions on the technical side.
Lightweight approach shoes for challenging terrain. The Dragontail Synth GTX by Garmont are extremely light approach shoes featuring a waterproof GORE-TEX membrane. They prepare you for difficult terrain with steep ascents and descents. The sturdy synthetic fabric with welded reinforcements reliably protects your feet from debris and is characterized by good abrasion resistance.
Flexible sole construction and stable heel position. The slightly softer sole design, made from a GTF diamond outsole and a dense EVA midsole, gives you a good sense of the ground's texture while providing solid grip. Ideal for minor climbs on the way to the crag. The Heel-Lock system ensures that your heels stay securely in place and do not slip. This prevents blisters and gives you additional control on technical sections. To guarantee a comfortable stance, Garmont incorporates a soft, heel-supported Ultralite footbed from Ortholite.
