## Description

The MTN Trainer 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 transmission for better grip on metal cramps and ladders in via ferrata. The upper is made of robust suede leather with a circumferential rubber edge and is equipped with a full leather lining for optimum breathability and climate comfort. This makes the shoe ideal for use in dry and warm conditions or at a higher activity level.

Review: Comfy and dry - Fit well. Perhaps a little loose on the heel for me but nice sturdy sole, goretex. 3rd pair of sales.. like them
Review: Well made and dependable - Solid, comfortable, with secure footing. Took it up first 1000 m hill within 3 days of delivery - in v. hot weather (35 C). No problems of any kind - no discomfort, or blisters, good grip on all terrain. Very happy with my purchase, but this is the third pair of Salewa Mountain Trainers I have had, and I will keep coming back to them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeous approach Shoe
*by J***N on 17 September 2022*

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
