A shoe as specialized as the rest of your gear.
As you might expect, the Arc'teryx Men's Acrux SL Approach Shoe features a relatively simple design that delivers the performance needed to withstand heavy use in abrasive mountain environments. Ridiculously light, the Acrux SL weighs a feathery ten ounces per shoe, making it the ideal approach shoe when every ounce counts. Like all Arc'teryx footwear, the Acrux SL has an unconventional construction that consists of a seamless, water-resistant upper, abrasion-resistant overlays, and an integrated rubber toe cap to keep the shoe intact when faced with rocky ridges, boulder-strewn approaches, and trails littered with roots and downed logs. The Acrux also has an air permeable liner that makes the shoe more suitable for hot and dry mid-summer objectives, so you can splash through puddles and conquer hot and dusty trails with confidence.
