TX4 EVO Men's

The full-grain leather upper already shows zero wear after three weekends of hiking, and the recycled laces haven't frayed a bit. They grip damp granite like glue on the approach, which makes me trust them on every sketchy step. These are built to outlast my old pair by years.

Took these on a rocky scramble two days after they arrived, and zero break-in needed—the leather molded to my feet right away. The grip on wet slabs was reassuringly solid, and I appreciate that the eco-friendly construction didn’t sacrifice any sturdiness.

The all-leather upper feels like it was built to last, and I’ve already tossed it through mud and scree without a scuff. It’s reassuring that the eco-friendly version doesn’t cut any corners on traction or comfort—my feet stayed planted the whole ridge walk.
