The Tag LT Approach Shoe has impressed us because of its packability--making it ideal for moving quickly in the alpine. The shoes feature the climbing-specific features you'd expect from Black Diamond, including a high-performance rubber sole for technical climbing and reinforced TPU zones in the upper for durability. The shoes also include a compression strap to fit around the shoes once you've started climbing, and the heel loops are specifically designed to strap onto your harness, just as you'd carry a cam.
