The North Face Summit Cragstone Pro Shoes: first impressions
When your hikes look more like scrambling than walking or you’re crossing rocky terrain to reach your favorite crag, you need something that’s in between the bulkiness of a hiking boot and the ballet slipper of a climbing shoe. These approach shoes are built to fit that bill with a lightweight but technical design that takes advantage of the innovative BOA lacing system. Grippy Vibram soles with good flex around the forefoot can handle rocky scrambles, while the mesh upper is so porous you can see your pedicure through it, making these ideal for hot days on the trail.
