Why We Like The Salewa Wildfire 2 PTX Approach Shoe

If our kids are drawn to climbing or summer mountaineering, the Salewa Wildfire 2 PTX Approach Shoe is the perfect choice to help them conquer any obstacles in their way. This shoe combines hiking shoe features with climb-oriented elements, including climbing laces that extend to the toes. The protective rubber rand not only enhances durability but also provides edging capabilities. The Pomoca rubber outsoles have a unique blend of hike-oriented tread and climb-oriented sticky rubber, giving young climbers the traction they need to ascend the mountain and reach the base of the climbing route. Additionally, the PTX technology incorporates a PowerTex waterproof membrane, ensuring their feet stay dry in soggy trails, damp days, and wet weather conditions.
