Sometimes you plan for months in advance, double-check that you've packed everything, and yet the moment you start hiking you realize that you blew it by bringing along your ratty approach shoes that have more holes in the upper than they do tread on the soles. Next time, snag a pair of the Black Diamond Mission LT Approach Shoes and let them do all of the hard work while your feet kick back and relax. Starting with their EVA midsole, Black Diamond added a lightweight nylon rock plate to keep the bottoms of your feet from being battered and bruised, as well as their BlackLabel Mountain rubber, so you never have to worry about slipping on slick rock again. The breathable knit upper works hard to fan your feet on long desert approaches, and the overwrapped rubber toe cap gives you just enough edge to tackle tricky slab moves on your way up to the wall. With an included internal bootie and webbing cinch system that ensure a natural fit, the Mission LT is one hiking shoe that won't let you down when things get steep.
