Salewa Wildfire Leather 2 GTX heren-approacheschoenen Faded Green/zwart EU 40.5

On a crisp alpine morning, you lace up the Wildfire Leather 2 GTX and head toward the granite slabs above the tree line. The suede upper flexes naturally as you move from trail to rock, while the GORE-TEX® lining keeps your feet dry through lingering snow patches and stream crossings. A precise climbing lacing system locks the heel in place, and the Pomoca Speed MTN outsole bites confidently into every edge and smear. This is footwear built for technical approaches, via ferrata, and long days where the route never stops changing.
