Gear up for the journey ahead with the Black Diamond Mission Leather Mid Waterproof. Designed for rugged terrain and heavy loads, this approach shoe offers ankle support and protection. Ideal for long approaches to climbs, hiking and scrambling in the fells and backpacking. It's waterproof/breathable BD.dry lining and Nuback leather upper ensure you stay dry, whether crossing streams or snowfields. Plus, the BlackLabel-Mountain sticky rubber provides precise traction for scrambling. Also features deep, high traction lugs for grip in muddy conditions, and a fully padded, gusseted tongue to keep out dirt and debris while providing maximum comfort. Its tuned EVA midsole offers ample stiffness and precision for tackling vertical terrain or Via Ferratas, while the multiple webbing loops allow for tagging options during transitions from approach to climbing.

I originally ordered size 7, which is my usual size, but they were too small and returned them for an 8, which fit perfectly on my foot shape (slim ‘Roman’ shape with long toes, so not always easy to fit). I’ve never had to wear an 8 before but they feel good with thick or ordinary socks. Customer service was absolutely fantastic - they answered my questions in full, kept a replacement pair aside and sent them very promptly. The boots themselves are great - comfy right away, excellent grip, lightweight and look good too! I’ve done a few short hikes already, with lots of rocky sections and scrambly slopes, and they make me feel confident and sure-footed.
