The North Face Smedge Approach Shoe - Men's description The North Face Men's Smedge Approach Shoe excels on rock-strewn routes and craggy terrain. Toe and heel rands, along with rubber-covered lace eyelets, let climbers jam their feet in fissures and not damage toes or the shoes. Sticky outsole lugs on the Smedges help you to hold your footing in a precarious spot. Breathable uppers let your feet vent heat, and midsole shanks placed underneath cushy EVA midsoles protect your soles from stone bruising. TPU support cages stabilize your feet on uneven terrain, and gusseted tongues stops dirt, twigs, and pebbles from getting in your shoes. The lacing on these approach shoes extends to the toe box to give you a climbing-shoe feel of control. | Bottom Line: Smear and edge your way up that 5.6 ridgeline while wearing the grippy The North Face Smedge Shoes. |
Like a Three Toed Sloth.

If you have been looking for a hiker that can do it all, then look no further. The North Face Smedge approach shoe is a work horse. After 3 straight days of scrambling up Class IV rock and hiking across canyons, the Smedge didn't let up. It's Smearacle Rubber out sole was so grippy I caught myself going up cliffs I normally wouldn't look at without dedicated rock shoes, but they held on tight. Their also comfortable enough to kick around town in and still get off the beaten path when you feel like it. So if you are looking for a do all shoe that is comfortable and able to hang on like a three toed sloth , then The North Face Smedge is it.
Solid Approach Shoe
Chone:
These are solid shoes. The mid-sole is nice and stiff and provides excellent support and protects your feet well. My longest day on these was 15 miles so far and they worked great. They have excellent grip on rock and work quite well for dirt/sand trails. These shoes are well vented also. All in all a solid shoe. Will work well for approach and if you are just looking for a solid hiker these will be great. My foot is 11.5 and I have a wide forefoot. The 11.5 fit great right out of the box.
