The Eldo Hiking Shoe relies on an Asolo/Vibram(R) AG Megagrip outsole with a dedicated climbing zone to hold on wet and dry rock alike. A seamless polyester upper keeps the shoe light and agile at 10 ounces, so it moves easily on fast day hikes and technical approaches. Polyurethane Asolite rands protect the EVA midsole where the terrain gets rough, and the outsole can be resoled once it wears down. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I scrambled up a wet slab approach in these without a single slip. The climbing zone on the outsole grips rock the way a dedicated approach shoe should, not just a hiking shoe that happens to handle rock okay."
