While some approaches barely involve an approach at all, should you encounter a multi-mile hike out to your chosen crag, the Five Ten Guide Tennie is a worthy choice. This low-profile, lightweight shoe has a Stealth C4 sole—the same ultra-sticky rubber that's found on Five Ten climbing shoes. This shoe's incredible friction will make the approach slabs to Half Dome a walk in the park. Whether you're making a quick run up another North Cascades ridge climb or slacklining in Camp 4, your feet will be happy in the Guide Tennie.

This thing is bulletproof. Kinda feels like a low top boot in a way.. lots of protection and enough cushion for a big walk. Climbs pretty darn good too, and kinda indispensable for wall climbing. The big wall work boot!

I had an older pair of these that delaminated, where the black rubber separated from the sole after only a year + of minimal use. Sent photos to Adidas and they replaced them with a pair of this new design for free! I use these for canyoneering and they are excellent for scrambling down chimneys and slots. The sticky rubber is bomber on sandstone. They are also comfortable enough on long hikes back to the car. Perfect shoe for slot canyons in the southern utah desert! Liked em so much I bought my spouse a pair.

At a recent trip to Moab, realized the "approach" shoes I brought were entirely inadequate; so I ordered a pair of these. FWIW: I wear a size 11 in everything and size 11 in these fits perfectly. These shoes are robust and feel great. I guess they need a little breaking in, but they worked fine for me right out of the box. I did yank the generic insoles out and replaced them with upgraded insoles with arches, and find they feel better underfoot for walking more than a short distance. Obviously I can't comment on their durability; but I don't abuse any of my gear and thus have never had a product "fail" on me. Highly recommend these shoes to you!

I love these. They did take a while to break in and they are a bit on the stiffer side. That being said, they've been my favorite approach shoes i've had so far. After about a year of intense use they're now falling apart. I'm not mad, it's to be expected. I have had friends complain about these not being durable though. Namely w/ the rubber becoming unglued and the stitching coming apart. I didn't have those problems though.
