La Sportiva TX Guide Leather

The leather version of the TX Guide, inspired by climbing technology and aesthetics, is the approach shoe for mountain guides and anyone engaged in mountain activities who seeks a high-performance shoe for approach and climbing. It features a combination of suede leather for better fit and nubuck leather for abrasion resistance. The look and feel are derived from the climbing world: an overlap tongue for maximum foot coverage and abrasion-resistant lacing at the toe with split-leather eyelets to protect the laces. Adaptable fit: a wrapping shape that can adjust to different volumes thanks to the use of leather. Asymmetrical climbing-style lacing extends to the toe for a highly precise fit. The Mythos Style Lacing System stabilizes the protective collar area. The collar, inspired by climbing elements, is made from PU-TECH Lite, with an external, lightweight, and reinforced heel insert for maximum protection and durability. The front of the midsole is equipped with a TPU layer created using a two-component injection molding technique, serving as a stabilizer for the climbing zone, a medial shank, and a rock-guard layer on the forefoot. The wide heel supports braking during downhill and provides better grip during uphill. The sole features a dual Vibram-MegaGrip and IdroGrip blend, offering the perfect combination of grip and durability.
