The TX4 Evo Carbon/Papaya from the brand La Sportiva is a men's approach shoe characterised by its comfort, technicality, and versatility.
This model is suitable both for approach and hiking, and it is very comfortable for Via Ferrata. It is a stable shoe featuring comfortable cushioning and good protection thanks to its rock guard.

| ORTHOLITE® | These are open-cell polyurethane insoles. Simply put, it’s a foam membrane! This alveolar insole wears out more slowly than traditional insoles, draining moisture more effectively and better absorbing impacts. Running shoes equipped with this technology help keep feet cool and dry, protecting against bacteria and fungi while improving performance thanks to shock absorption and minimal wear over time. |
| IIMPACT BRAKE SYSTEM™® | This innovative system is applied to the sole to absorb negative impact on the ground, boost traction uphill, and improve grip downhill. Created and developed by La Sportiva’s R&D department, the Impact Brake System offers real advantages in running by reducing negative ground impact. The unique positioning of the lugs allows most of them to maintain contact with the ground for optimal impact absorption. |
| RESOLE PLATFORM™ | A system designed to allow resoling of the shoe. It facilitates sole repair to extend the product’s lifespan, particularly suited for intensive mountain use. |
