Lightweight approach shoes for challenging terrain. The Dragontail Synth GTX by Garmont are extremely lightweight approach shoes featuring a waterproof GORE-TEX membrane. They prepare you for difficult ground with steep ascents and descents. The sturdy synthetic fabric with welded reinforcements reliably protects your feet from debris and is characterized by good abrasion resistance.
Flexible sole construction and stable heel position. The slightly softer sole construction, made of a GTF diamond outsole and a dense EVA midsole, provides you with a good sense of the ground's texture while offering solid grip. Ideal for smaller climbs on the way to the crag. The Heel-Lock system ensures that your heels stay securely in place and do not slip. This helps prevent blisters and gives you additional control on technical sections. To guarantee a comfortable stance, Garmont incorporates a soft, heel-supported Ultralite insole from Ortholite.

Source: GalaxusThe Dragontail Synth GTX is a shoe that, in contrast to its predecessors, offers significantly more comfort, but has to make concessions on the technical side.
