The MTN Trainer Evo is an alpine approach shoe for technical hiking, via ferrata and trekking. The versatile and multifunctional Vibram MTN Trainer Evo sole provides safety and stability in difficult terrain. The deep, self-cleaning tread and aggressive lugs provide secure grip on rocky terrain, scree and via ferrata, as well as optimal traction on muddy ground, grass and snow. The special via ferrata zone in the midfoot area with right-angled studs allows maximum power transfer for better grip on metal cramps and ladders in via ferrata. The rugged suede upper has a rubber welt all around and features a GORE-TEX Extended Comfort lining for durable waterproofing and breathability: Wetness can not penetrate, while sweat and moisture can easily escape to the outside.

Comfortable go to walking shoes
These are a straight replacement for my go to walking/approach shoes which lasted me 6 years. Original shoe maintained its shape and structure with only the vibram sole tread wearing through after this time. They are perhaps stiffer and slightly heavier than other approach shoes but offer a stable walking platform throughout its life.

Gorgeous approach Shoe
Looks good, stiff sole, vibram grip. Serve you well on most mountain approaches and decent for some technical section or scramble grades. Found them heavy though, like an old Volvo, solid. If you’re a ‘fast and light’ heat head maybe look elsewhere. If you want some reassurance and longevity though, these are it. Done a few grade 2 scrambles with em in the uk and they have been great. I did however use them in the wet, and wasn’t overly enamoured with them on slick limestone, nearly took a few headers 😂. hoping it was because they were brand new. Good quality overall tho

Salewa footwear
Bought these shoes as i had plantar faciilitis in the foot, where walking became almost unbearable.These Salewa shoes after wearing for 3 days fixed the problem, i was amazed.I then inserted insoles and now my feet feel well protected.These shoes remind me when i was younger getting fitted up for my first pair of shoes.These help you walk more correctly where the weight from upper body is evenly distributed over the foot.It feels like your walking more on the balls of your feet, towards the front part of foot.I would highly recommend this brand of footwear especially if your out walking a lot.You need good, sturdy and robust footwear, Salewa more than provides that.Also folk with feet problems should try this brand Salewa.Could end up being a smart decision......

Robust pair of walking/approach shoes.
Fit is perfect (half a size bigger than my normal size). Shoes could act as multi-purpose, including via ferrata.Durable Vibram sole.

manufacturing fault
Ive had these before about 3 years ago in size 6 when they were made in Vietnam. These are made in Romania and are smaller sized in comparison. The pair i had delivered here were 6.5 but the left one had a manufacturing fault the left one was visibly deformed slightly in the toe, tight and uncomfortable. Ive order the 7 to allow for this, but they are way to big.Other than that, they look good, seem well made, are more comfortable then the older versions, stiff, light enough and hopefully waterproof. ive had to send them back sadly.
