SHOE SHAPE
Pronounced arch shape, high level of asymmetry and significant tension in the heel (moderate level). This shape provides maximum accuracy and power during your movements and significantly optimises contact on small holds.
Please note: this shape, suited to highly technical climbing, may reduce foot comfort (especially on Greek-shaped feet).
SOLE
XS GRIP Vibram® rubber, excellent grip and resistance to wear.
UPPER
High-coverage synthetic microfibre upper.
Keeps its shape.
ADJUST TO FIT
Elastic tightening with a single, very wide rip-tab strap, securing the foot.
SIZING RECOMMENDATIONS
If you are a climber working to improve your skills, you can buy them tighter (1/2 -1 size below normal, for example), but it's important they don't hurt, so that your foot can develop mobility, proprioception, and strength.
If you are an advanced climber, we suggest you take the time to try different sizes (1 to 2 sizes below normal) to find the best compromise between comfort and compression for more force when pushing off.
WEAR-AND-TEAR OF THE SOLE
Did you know? The better a rubber’s grip, the more it wears out, especially in indoor climbing.
This is why we have chosen to work with a specialist recognised in the market since 1937, Vibram, and have carefully selected the rubber offering the best balance between durability and grip.
Our tests show that on average, rubber wears away in 6 months, on the front and/or top of the shoes. This can be even quicker, depending on how you place your feet.
