La Sportiva Tx Guide

From La Sportiva's TX series, the TX Guide Men is the most technical model. This shoe is designed for technical approaches, mountaineering, and via ferratas, making it suitable for activities in demanding terrain that require high-performance and durable footwear. This approach shoe is versatile, very lightweight, offers protection, and provides excellent grip. La Sportiva achieves this combination of features through a lightweight synthetic upper and a heavily profiled outsole with a high rock guard. Visually striking is the split sole, which actually consists of two different Vibram rubber compounds: Vibram MegaGrip and Idrogrip, providing the perfect balance of traction and durability. The profile-less Climbing Zone at the front allows for optimal grip on edges while climbing. Speaking of grip: the foot also needs to be well secured, which is ensured in the TX Guide by the lacing that extends far forward and the snug Tech-Fit design. The tongue construction is inspired by running shoes and prevents the entry of debris with its close but softly padded closure. Despite all the desired firmness, the TX Guide provides the necessary cushioning through its soft Ortholite insole and EVA midsole, allowing you to tackle long distances comfortably.
