The La Sportiva TX5 Low GTX approach shoe is a waterproof, technical shoe for approaching climbing routes, hiking and via Ferrata.
This low-cut leather version, part of the TX Series, is lightweight but maintains its high level of protection against the elements, thanks to its abrasion-resistant wrap-around rand and Gore-Tex® waterproof lining. Derived from La Sportiva's climbing heritage, the TX5 makes for a sturdy, durable platform with high-quality Nubuck leather which further increases its overall comfort. The lacing system wraps its way up the uppers and comes around the back of the heel for a super-secure fit, combined with the Vibram Mega Grip sole unit, you will have total faith scrambling on technical terrain, downhill braking and uphill grip. A technical and trustworthy approach shoe for all-mountain lovers.

Quick and simple service
Great shoe, exceptionally comfortable. Using it to walk some long trails. So far it has lived up to the expectation. Size wise I am a street 7 but I always go one higher and it seemed to be just right
Excellent experience - first pair didn’t fit comfortably but return process was simple and quick turnaround by the shop meant replacement shoes arrived a few days later
Nice shoe, used these once before with different sole pattern.
This updated version has much better grip particularly on the descent paths.
The upper is quite stiff to start off with but starts to soften to foot shape after a few trips out.
