The North Face Verto Approach scarpe - Smoked Pearl/Black - taglia 45.5

Technical approaches demand a shoe that bridges the gap between hiking comfort and climbing precision. The North Face Verto Approach delivers exactly that, with a low-cut design that keeps you nimble on scrambles and a Vibram Megagrip outsole that grips rock like a climbing shoe. The smoked pearl and black colourway looks sharp from the crag to the trailhead.

Tips

For the best fit, try on approach shoes with the socks you plan to wear on technical terrain. The Verto Approach runs true to size, but if you're between sizes, consider sizing up for longer approaches. After a day on dusty trails, brush off dirt and let the shoes air dry away from direct heat to preserve the upper and outsole.
