When the approach to the crag is half the battle, the Men's Asolo Magnum GV Shoe comes out to play. This technical hiking shoe is built with durable suede uppers and a sticky Vibram sole for tackling steep, rocky ascents, whether you're on your way to a climb or just seeking out the best view for miles around. A Gore-Tex lining offers breathable protection from wet weather, while the EVA midsole and Anti-Shock system keep your feet from tiring out before you're even ready to climb. The sole is designed with a climbing zone specific to approach shoes, while a mid-height ankle provides proper ankle protection on longer treks.

Vibram Megagrip outsole

Vibram Megagrip outsole

The Vibram Megagrip outsole is a high-performance rubber compound that provides exceptional traction on both wet and dry surfaces. It is designed with a special blend of materials that offer durability, flexibility, and excellent grip. The sole is specifically engineered to provide a secure and reliable footing on various terrain types, including loose rocks, wet ground, and steep inclines.
Gore-Tex lining

Gore-Tex lining

The Gore-Tex lining is a highly breathable and waterproof membrane that is integrated into the Asolo Magnum GV Shoe, designed to provide excellent protection against wet weather conditions. The membrane works by allowing sweat and moisture to escape from inside the shoe while preventing external moisture from penetrating the shoe's outer layers, thus keeping your feet dry and comfortable. This technology is especially useful for outdoor activities such as hiking, trekking, and climbing, where prolonged exposure to wet conditions can cause discomfort and potentially lead to blisters or other foot injuries.
Duo Asoflex midsole

Duo Asoflex midsole

The Duo Asoflex midsole is a technology used in Asolo Magnum GV shoes for enhanced stability and support. It is made up of two layers: a soft layer that conforms to the shape of your foot and a stiffer layer that provides structure and support. This combination provides a comfortable fit while also allowing for the necessary rigidity and stability needed for hiking and other outdoor activities.
Suede and Cordura upper

Suede and Cordura upper

The Asolo Magnum GV Shoe for men features a durable upper made of a combination of suede and Cordura fabric, which provides excellent protection and support for your feet. Suede is known for its durability, and Cordura fabric is renowned for its resistance to abrasion and tear. The combination of these two materials results in a shoe that can withstand harsh outdoor conditions.

Very comfortable. I don’t need to break it in. Because I order it on line it’s not as tight. But this is a trade off. I can wear it for long approach but not easy to climb since the toe area is roomy and soft. Scrambling to set up top rope anchor is more than adequate. Did not try it out on the rain yet. The price is high though. But quality is very good.
