The Rotpunkt Low GTX celebrates its comeback. In the early 1980s, we were one of the first brands to introduce sport climbing shoes to the market. Inspired by the redpoint spirit and legendary designs of the era, the Rotpunkt Low GTX combines heritage vibes with functional details. Already once in the collection, the popular model is now back in a new version. BACK FOR GOOD!

The HANWAG Rotpunkt Low GTX combines outstanding outdoor and approach functionality with retro styling that also works well on the streets of Berlin, Paris or New York. Its robust leather and Cordura upper, lightweight outsole with optimum grip and waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX membrane make it ideal for both.
