La Sportiva Tx Guide Leather

The leather version of the TX Guide, inspired by the climbing world, is the approach shoe for mountain guides and anyone who is active in the mountains and looking for a high-performance shoe for access and climbing. The TX Guide is the most technical shoe in La Sportiva's TX series. It offers a perfect combination of split leather, suede for a better fit, and nubuck leather for abrasion resistance, making it ideal for technical approaches and climbing.

Designed for mountain guides and outdoor enthusiasts, this shoe provides durability as well as a climbing-oriented look and feel. Versatile, lightweight, and protective, it is perfect for hikes, runs, and via ferratas. The shoe includes technical solutions inspired by climbing shoes, such as asymmetrical and forward-positioned lacing, friction-resistant eyelets at the toe area, and an overlapping tongue for maximum foot coverage.

The adaptable design ensures optimal performance and fits well to all foot shapes thanks to the elastic leather. The stable toe cap provides optimal support on edges while the climbing-inspired protective rand is made of lightweight PU-TECH Lite material. The combination of the outsole and midsole features a dual density of compressed EVA for cushioning at the heel and stabilization in the midfoot. The front of the midsole contains a TPU layer, produced with a two-component injection molding technology, which serves as stabilization for the climbing zone, as a mid-layer, and as a stone protection layer in the forefoot area.

The sole, made from dual Vibram MegaGrip and Idrogrip compounds, offers an excellent balance between grip and durability. The wide heel supports braking on descents and provides better grip during ascents. TX Guide Leather: Be your own guide.
