Professional climber Shauna Coxsey wore Five Ten Women’s Anasazi Pro Climbing Shoe prototypes when she won the IFSC Bouldering World Cup in 2017. Not only did she send in them, but she also worked with Five Ten designers to make a show worthy of her powerful prowess. Compared to the original Anasazi, the Anasazi Pro boasts a little more heel tension to provide better aggression and precision. The toe patch is also a new update to the Anasazi family, and it’s made of Five Ten’s stickiest Stealth Mi6 rubber for reliable friction. The bottom rubber is Five Ten’s ever-trustful Stealth C4 rubber that Coxsey admittedly used when she first started climbing at the age of four.

Hey I’m nathan welcome to the scarpa. Booth so i thought maybe you’re here you’d like to see the new model of the vapor so vapor is actually one of our. Most popular climbing shoes mainly because they’re very balanced they do a little bit of everything and most people haven’t got to the stage where they have three four five pairs of climbing shoes, and they want one climbing shoe that does a little bit of everything they’re a seven panel design so most people. Think that the intermediate they’re not we’ve actually got just as many pieces as a drago so and the pattern that. Stitches them is very hard to do it’s a very small kicker at the front here you can even see the outline on the shoe and that’s because the toe position in vapor is a little bit flatter that’s because vapor we really wanted to. Make it an aging and smearing shoe that. Had a good balance between either the first version of the vapor was almost all ever and then the next version of. The vapor was a combination of synthetic and other materials and then the last version of the vapor that we got here is. Synthetic on both sides with a leather at the bottom so the version before i. Had suede leather on the inside here, and we exchanged that from microfiber and. That made the upper a little bit softer as well as we reduce the volume of the tongue and tapered it a little bit so that made the whole shoe a little bit softer, so we put a new plastic insert on the inside and previously. Would have heard that we had flex and plastic inserts we use that a lot from the performance models and the new vapor has a tail and plastic insert and the. Tail is just a little bit stiffer we also extended the plastic up and over the heel so it just gave a little bit more structure to the shoe because changing out the leather for the synthetic softened the upper, and we didn’t want to change the characteristic of the shoe very much for climbing we just really wanted to make it a little bit more comfortable and a little less of breaking in period but the same performance one of the other things that you’ll notice it’s got a excess grip to. Here with two layers so that’s something that we previously did on the instinct model and a lot of people really liked it, so we put this onto the model it adds a little bit more labor but it gives the heel the ability to. Change shape and obviously it gives the best rubber for heel hooking on the other side so overall we improved. Basically the characteristics so the. Shoe could break in a little bit faster but in the end the shoe remains on the. Same last with the same shape and just a. Color update and a softening of the upper and a stiffening of the mid sole the vapor woman’s and the vapor men’s. Are on different lasts so they have. Different rubbers so you’ll see this sample prototypes got excess edge it’s actually excess group two on the women’s and it’s excess edge on the men’s but. That’s not really the biggest difference the biggest difference is the total volume of the shoe so especially in the heel the volume is a lot narrower and more sculptured on the female version than it is on the male i mean a. Lot of people are choosing the shoes off the outside looks it’s not what we want. We want them to look inside and climb with the shoe but in the end the velcro. Strap looked a little bit nicer with a little bit of 3d print pulling it out the strapless is the same we did insert. A piece of elastic in the middle here just to kind of keep that flat and keep. A real snug fit because we felt the straps just pulled in two points and the middle point didn’t get pulled in enough so that’s why the velcro versions. Changed slightly on either side we did a lot of changes on it in the hope that we. Would make it more comfortable but changed nothing about the characteristic of the shoe and you know in the end that meant that we changed the whole mid sole the shape and the plastic so it’s its. Probably it is yeah it’s a totally. Different shoe with the same characteristic when you climb but um i think it shows that you can’t just fit all with one layer and not affect the whole shoot so each layer has an. Effect doesn’t matter what you do even just changing the material will change the way it comes out at 2019 and. The price is a moderate increase but i. Think it’s marginal five bucks ten. Bucks yeah, so we tried as much as we could to keep the same price but obviously there’s a little bit more work especially in the heel it’s gone from a single layer here or to a dual layer. Excess grip here so it takes a little. But more work to do that most people. Just don’t realize how much work goes into the climbing shoes if you put a relative price on the climbing shoes compared to some of the other shoes that the margins are actually pretty small they take a long time to make and. There’s a lot of handwork in them, but we’re capped by having the most expensive prices on the market i think people just don’t understand how long it takes, and we’ve got you know 38 of our. 39 models are all made in italy, so we haven’t got the alternative of cheaper manufacturing or anything like that.
Creepy, crawly spiders can climb any route better than any climber, and knowing that actually brings confidence to you when you enter a climbing gym for the first time, because you can do it if an insect can do it, and the La Sportiva Women’s Tarantula Climbing Shoe is here to help. Like most climbing shoes, the Tarantula has the friction to help you stick to those footholds you think are impossible to stand on. Unlike most climbing shoes, the Tarantula actually focuses on comfort so you can keep thinking about how to climb without the agonies of painful feet trying to convince you to put on some slippers or something.
What’s up guys peter here from reviews. On anything and in this video we’re looking at climbing shoes not your everyday topic but very interesting these are the last 45 tarantula. Shoes in kiwi color i kid you not and. They are designed for climbing obviously this is an all-round climbing shoe that functions well on plastic so when you’re climbing on indoor climbing hole but also well on rock when your bouldering or doing outdoor climbing set you back. Around 70 to 90 bucks depending on where. You buy them and if you can find a good deal online and there are a good sorts of. Media spectacles climbing shoe the top. Is made of leather and as you can tell by the straps already this is a shoe that’s designed to be tight when you’re buying a climbing shoe you really want it to be an extension of your foot because you can imagine obviously when you’re climbing you really want to be well in touch with all your connection. Points to the wall that you’re climbing actually so these shoes are meant to be. Tight and that’s right then of all these loops on them so you can actually pull. Then in place properly obviously it. Should be so tight that it restricts blood flow to your foot this is size 42. For me which is very snug there’s like. Hardly any room left for my toes but. Since it’s leather it’ll wear in a. Little bit and actually bombing in for a few times it becomes more comfortable but definitely climbing shoes unless. You’re familiar with the brand and the sizing don’t buy him online on seeing on. Try it really go to a store put them on see how. They feel maybe even take it for a test climb if that’s possible to make sure you have the proper fit because there’s nothing worse obviously than being halfway up a boulder and realizing that your shoes too tight and you can’t continue that’s a not a nice situation. Now you can open these shoes up pretty. Much all the way like so to make sure. You know that you can get your foot in. Properly and get it adjusted so that the. Desired titus is right for you which is. Great then we move to the business end. Of the which is obviously sole because this is. The part you’re going to use to grip on any kind of climbing wall now it’s made. Of something, they call friction rubber which according to them works really well on both plastics on inner climbing. And outdoor which is great that means you can use it around any way you want really the sole. Is one point eight millimeters thick which means it’s not a very aggressive. Shoe you know there’s a bit of flex in it obviously but it’s you know a very. Solid platform to stand on so if you’re a climber that wants to you know fully flex his foot and bend it in all kinds. Of shapes this probably not to shoot for you because the soul is just too thick and a bit too stiff for that but with extra cutting here around the tone extra. Cutting here around the heel it’s a shoe that’s fits very well in pretty much any kind of environment and i personally like shoes like this that are a little. Less aggressive because i like to really utilize a shoe in order to make my way. Up and if your shoe gets too aggressive. That i feel than just wearing socks so. This is a really substantial soul and a really substantial addition to your foot in order to climb the shoe only weighs. 290 gram so you know nice and light shouldn’t hamper you too much and i find. Then actually quite comfortable and i. Think the adjustment on the top is awesome to make sure you get a good fit. And i really like that they’ve thought this through from a climbers perspective and actually put the loops all around the shoe to make sure you can actually put it on nice and tight as far as your. Ability goes i tried about a few times not a mark on them really and it does. Indeed, work really well on both plastic and rocks and although i think it’s a. Very accessible shoe maybe when you’re. Just getting into climbing like me this. Is something you can definitely pick up without the hitch and get started with and especially at the price point it’s a. Decent shoe not sure about the color but hey I’m sure that you can find something that matches your own personal tastes and overall i think it’s a good shoe that. Does exactly what it needs to do and makes no secrets about what it’s supposed to do i like it’s good too. And at the price point you can be sure. To be having a good time in this is peter from reviews on anything with a look at the lust $45 uncle ah shoes hope. You guys enjoy the video and I’ll catch you in the next one cheers.
This comfortable shoe is easy to use and. Easy to get on and off in a flash the unlined upper is excellent for moisture management and super comfortable on your foot all day the shape is round and. Higher volume for the climber not looking to mangle their feet yet aggressive enough to perform when needed the highly adjustable closure system adapts to multiple foot types and shapes.
The tarantulas women’s is an unlined. Leather climbing shoe with asymmetric. Shape for advanced performance the women’s specific rn 45 last is great for. Upper end performance without hurting your toes the synthetic leather over leg lacing. Harness adds great support for entry to mid-level climbers and the unlined leather is comfortable and soft the. Aggressive rubber heel ran lets you stand in micro edges and the fruit fly. On rs rubber is hard wearing against to keep it long liner this is a great shoe. For gym climbers and outdoor climbers that need a one curve a shoe that does it all.

We’re gonna talk about another quick. Update on the black diamond momentum. Shoes remember these guys deliver as. Promised so i plan for another week with. This and it still doesn’t smell that’s. Pretty sweet now it is a little bit lighter than my previous evolve shoes and my evolve shoes are weighed in 304 grams. These guys are 277 grams. Get rid take so it is lighter but not by. Much it doesn’t make a difference they’re roughly the same size so take it for. What it is the rubber the more fun with. It i feel like it needs to soften up a. Little bit i hope it soft enough softens. Up last week i mentioned that smearing is really great on tiny holes i kind of. Am on the fence on that statement now. Again because the more climb with it there are a couple of problems i did elevenses on slabs where i just had to smear the. Wall not a hole and so just and the wall was kind of rough at my gym and this. Rubber is kind of stiff compared to evolve and I’m not sure if it just. Needs to wear in or something it just doesn’t spread as much if you know what i mean it’s its just not as soft and when i press it against the wall I’ll show you a video clip of me at a gym at some point but when it presses down. Against a slab wall not a hole mind. You I’m just trying to get some friction in tis doesn’t so that’s the downside i found out as well. That the rubber is toros rubber in case. You’re not familiar with their at south korean company that’s making really great shoes black diamond makes these. Shoes in the same factory in china as patara, so they shared the same rubber. Whatever that means other than that i. Find this shoes still good it’s still. Kind of pinching my left big toe from. Time to time well quite a bit actually my right side seems to spread out some. So i hope it’s its wearing in and i. Hope it’s not because I’m using a size. To be small or something but that would suck adjust ability is great all the bell. Crows you know just you know typical velcro shoes breath ability really helps when you’re picking a rest in between and to you know why you’re been laying in such now an interesting quirk about this. Weave that i found out is more stared at. It reminded me of my place mat in my. Kitchen this is from ikea and look at that material and look at that design it’s about the same if you’re interested. This is the snob pig it’s for people who. Are big snobs so that’s my update for. This week for this shoe and stay tuned. For next week when I’ll give you more information hopefully and find out more after climbing with this in this for. Another week before i do a one month. Wrap up on this thing well that’s it for. This vlog thanks for watching and don’t forget to subscribe below to support my channel you guys have been awesome and watching and supporting me and being.

Now this is where a black diamond. Climbing shoe box and then we thought of. See this day but black diamond has gone. Into the climbing shoe business and they. Just launched this back in june now i. Was supposed to do a full on full review. In a month for the new momentum shoe that’s the one i bought and wanted to test out and give you my opinion about. It but i thought I’ll just do a quick update on this after i climbed this. Climb with this for a couple of times and these are my initial impressions so. Check it out so this is a new momentum. Shoe men’s at least the ladies comes in. Red and gray and the guys come in blue. And gray it’s a nice little stealthy. Shoe that looks like your gym rental yes it is a basic beginner intermediate shoe. Totally rockin now black diamond talks a. Lot about their new weaving aisle here. You look closely is very similar to your. Athletic shoes it’s breathable and odor. Free when he needs to and it’s nice and. Structural on your heels and on your toe. Box and it stretches when he needs to. Now I’ve climbed with this a couple of times as i said and i feel like it’s a. Little bit tighter than some like my own shoe which was synthetic leather and i. Can remember this after climbing one or. Two sessions it started to loosen up this one my toes do hurts and I’ll give you further impressions as. Time goes by but initial impressions. This is less stretchy than your synthetic leather or leather shoes. Obviously now that said this the. Firmness that it comes with it gives it a little bit more control and edging is. Awesome sensitivity is not that great because the soul is flat and thick but. What it does is really well as edging it gives it a pretty good stiffness right here and I’ve been able to step on. Really small holes that i couldn’t with this small holes on this thing it was. Like a big hole so it’s really great now. What any time will tell what the velcro is gonna do whether it was fitting to the ends or things like that as velcro straps tend to do but it seems. Like it’s built on two separate levels there’s the velcro and stitching right. Underneath a inset of a leather tab so i. Think longevity might be good here the. Other part is that they always they talked about with this knitting is odor. Free or less odor and it will sit we’ll. Find out about that now the rubber comes in three different. Kinds that black diamond creates now and. It is this one is the neo friction and i. Hope it holds up well it seems to be on. Par if not better than a lot of. Equivalent brands out there so black. Diamond great go that’s my initial. Impression of this shoe I’m gonna keep climbing it in for a few more weeks but I’ll update you guys every week and anything i find and do a wrap up at the. And it’s so thank you for watching remember to thumb up if you like this video don’t. Dump down okay this thumbs up and. Subscribe to this to keep up to date on get kept up to date on gear up reviews. Thanks for watching.

Awesome sensitivity is not that great because the soul is flat and thick but. What it does is really well as edging it gives it a pretty good stiffness right here and I’ve been able to step on. Really small holes that i couldn’t with this small holes on this thing it was. Like a big hole so it’s really great now. What any time will tell what the velcro is gonna do whether it was fitting to the ends or things like that as velcro straps tend to do but it seems. Like it’s built on two separate levels there’s the velcro and stitching right. Underneath a inset of a leather tab so i. Think longevity might be good here the. Other part is that they always they talked about with this knitting is odor. Free or less odor and it will sit we’ll. Find out about that now the rubber comes in three different. Kinds that black diamond creates now and. It is this one is the neo friction and i. Hope it holds up well it seems to be on. Par if not better than a lot of. Equivalent brands out there so black. Diamond great go that’s my initial. Impression of this shoe I’m gonna keep climbing it in for a few more weeks but I’ll update you guys every week and anything i find and do a wrap up at the. And it’s so thank you for watching remember to thumb up if you like this video don’t. Dump down okay this thumbs up and. Subscribe to this to keep up to date on get kept up to date on gear up reviews. Thanks for watching.
Hi I’m lynn the technical shoe designer here at black diamond and remember last. Year when we introduced the shoe line we had four new models as the initial. Launch of the shoe program and this year we’re going to add one model to that range and if you can remember we started. Off with this nice flat all knit shoe. For comfort breath ability and price and. Then what we did was we came up with a. Leather version stiffer and more durable. For more outside long route type of. Climbing the full strength full length. Midsole is stiffer so that will support your feet for longer days climbing and. Then we had a soft high-performance. Mostly indoor are very steep rock climbing shoe called the shadow that allows us to grab and pull with our feet. And then the focus very soon here will. Be on the market is the stiffer version that allows us to have a lot more. Support on smaller holds for the type of climbing where we have more weight on our feet compared to the type of climbing where we’re climbing on deeper overhanging rock with a shadow place so. This is the softest shoe in our line and this is the stiffest shoe currently in. Our line the new shoe the zone will fall. Right in the middle and the zone will. Have all the feature benefits of a. Knitted upper in terms of breath ability in terms of quick drying in terms of. Keeping your feet from not sweating too. Much and also comfort but instead of now. Having a flat profile like we did in the. Momentum we’re gonna know curl our toes and get it in a much more powerful position in the same position actually the same last and the same shape as our shadow the zone will come in four colors. And two volumes a regular volume and then a low volume. And when we mean by low volume is across. The ball of the foot it’s narrower and it’s lower volume behind the toes all. The way up to the instep strap lower. Volume in the heel and also low volume in the heel cup, and we want to make sure. That we point out that it’s actually a volume difference and not a male-female because we have men who have skinny. Narrower lower volume feet as well and so as you look at the entire color range. The colors are more gender neutral so. That a woman that has a wide foot is. Fine in these colors and then a man with a narrow foot will be finding these colors as well okay so again a cambered shape two straps and. You notice the rear strap here this time is nice and wide so it contains our. Instep better for heel hooking and for. General edging it also has a full length mid sole that’s stiff to help support our. Feet on smaller holds so that’s the zone coming in spring nineteen retailing for 130 euros. You.

Each year your adventures get more and more out there, and this year you’re headed to the Dolomites with a number of via ferrata on your checklist.

The durable suede upper and sticky Vibram sole are built for steep, rocky approaches, with a Gore-Tex membrane for comfort on wet days and mid-height ankle protection for longer trails. The rubber toe cap offers protection from sharp limestone cliffs, while the sole is designed with a climbing zone specific to approach shoes. The EVA midsole and Anti-Shock insert ensure that your feet will still have plenty of life in them once you’re ready to get vertical.
When the approach is long and rocky, be it giant granite slabs or loose fields of shale, you need a shoe with traction that’s up to the task. The Five Ten Women’s Guide Tennie Shoes use high-friction soles and soft leather to help you keep your footing and stay comfortable during your approach. EVA in the midsole adds support and fights off fatigue through the long hike in, while the water-resistant nubuck leather upper sheds moisture from passing rainstorms.
