It’s safe to say you got the climbing “bug” since you dream about pulling stone, imagine ascending every building you walk by, and never miss a chance to climb, whether it’s your first time on a trad route, your umpteenth time at the gym, or bouldering with your buddies until sunset. It’s also safe to say that your beginner shoes aren’t cutting it anymore; so look to the Butora Women’s Endeavor Climbing Shoe for that next step in sending performance. Butora shaped this shoe with slight asymmetry and a subtle downturn to help boost your morale on any climb you encounter. An all-arounder, the Endeavor feels good on multi-pitches, intermediate boulder problems, and most gym routes. Butora built this shoe with a moisture-managing German split-leather upper, stretch-reducing PU strips, and an odor-resisting hemp lining. The Endeavor’s updates for this year include Poron’s padding at the breathable mesh tongue for more comfort in cracks. Underfoot, the Endeavor features a stiff midsole to ensure structure on dime-sized edges, and Butora’s butyl F5 rubber sole sticks to slabs and edges equally for smearing or toe-powering.
When comfier climbing shoes don’t give the performance you need on the crux pitch, and high-performing climbing shoes feel too uncomfortable to wear all day, the Scarpa Women’s Maestro Mid Eco Climbing Shoe feels just right. It sports an ever-so-subtle downturn to amplify the performance you need for the crux, and moderate asymmetry creates a comfier fit compared to most aggressive, downturned shoes. The IPC-Tension rand surrounds the upper to maintain the shoe’s subtle downturn and moderate asymmetry for life, and Scarpa heightened the eco-friendly leather upper for better coverage in cracks. Vibram’s XS Edge rubber gives this sole a stiff feel for the support needed on long multi-pitches.
My name is marc bosley i am the climbing category manager for. Scoffer north america for spring 18 we are launching the new maestro family two. Models a men’s and women’s admit and lens and women’s low and for me the. Starting point of this shoe is really the upper we started to use a leather or. A niko leather which is more sustainably sourced it’s got less and ask to buy products that are given off during the tanning process in terms of the actual performance of this shoe it gives a really soft hand to this lever, so we want this shoe to be super comfy and this softer hand allows that what’s really interesting the guyver actually designs all that shoes buckle times marker he kind of has moved. The seams around in the shoe so actually if we flip the shoe over when you can see inside it we can see that the positions of the seams have been moved away from underneath your toe and from on top of your knuckles so it becomes again a very comfortable shoe to wear for extended periods here under on the mid we’ve got a full length protection over the laces and that’s the first point of difference between the low version we can see that we’ve got exposed laces here so protection and. Here we’ve got easier just a bit and this is kind of large discs that sits here underneath the laces cushions the top of your foot this is all built on you last and i believe that this is the first women-specific made on the market it’s a brand-new active rand kind of it’s a combination of our really popular buy attention active rand and our pcb active rand which is up here there are runs rounds here under the foot and back this way. And then we’ve got earnest of a stream that goes under here it allows us to kind of have a paradigm shift that trad shooters supposed to be really stiff here we’ve got a shoe that is very. Very supportive but also kind of sensitives the pull and the charge and. The dynamism that’s in this shoe is kind of more explosive than here this gives a kind of more gentle extended release. Of energy, you know got this all day comfortable use quite technical and here you’ve got something that’s a bit more technical more face climbing smaller kind edges and excess edge on all of them the mid comes in february march time and that’s going to retail at $190 released. At the same time is the low and that’s on tonight’s dollars.
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.

Hi my name is matt I’m with evolve. Climbing and we have a lot of new. Shoes to show ya very first two we’re gonna talk about our night hawk and sky hawk these are $79 entry-level shoes all. Leather upper with a synthetic closure system so that the leather breaks in and stretches to your foot the synthetic part keeps that fit and that performance out of it so for a $79 shoe these things are actually amazingly comfortable for all levels of climbers the big difference between the defiant electra and the nighthawk sky hawk are velcro versus lace-up fully synthetic. With an antimicrobial liner and then. Leather similar fit but not quite identical and these are $89 price point due to the synthetic and the antimicrobial layer the defy and the nighthawk are both our higher volume men’s fit and then the electra and the. Skyhawk are the lower volume we did a different upper pattern on the sky hawk versus the nighthawk so when you pick up the shoe it actually looks like a different shoe because it actually is a. Different shoe it’s a different fit different shape lower volume we want them to be available for men or women. That just happen to have a lower volume or higher volume foot.

Water-based dyes for the leather as well the friction eco outsole on the cobra is a one-piece sole providing a little more. Stiffness underfoot there’s a very thin.

Hey there andrew staff from carbon dale Illinois for climb stuff with a review. Of the la sportive squaw ma i was. Looking for a new bouldering shoe and i have tried the la sportive solution and it did not fit my foot well my foot was a little too small for it so i tried the. Squaw ma and i have not been disappointed if you’re looking for a. Downturned bouldering shoe that’s a little bit softer almost more slipper like in its feel and sensitivity i would. Say this is great for you it’s got a rubber patch excuse me over the top of the toe it’s pretty flexible great for toe hooking and toast. Coming it’s got a really comfortable heel that also has this s heel stability. Plastic piece there sometimes when your. Heel hooking and your heel look really hard you can compress that plastic heel and this helps it from collapsing keep. It from collapsing which has been really beneficial especially when you need to grab and rock over onto something it’s got the p3r and which keeps the shoe in. A downturn shape for the majority of its life one velcro straps that you can kind. Of adjust depending on how you want to be oriented pretty a simple shoe the. Only the only gripe i have with it is sometimes this part right back here in. The heel can dig into my heel if it flips over and it’s not perfectly set but all in all the shoe does things really well it sport climbs well edges well toes into little hook things well and surprisingly enough it’s smears really well due to this soft sole and this little. Slot right here so that when i put my. Weight on it spread it gives you more flexibility the shoe is not so stiff. This is a great do it I’ll shoe especially if the stuff that you’re climbing is a little bit more overhanging so i would say if the solution doesn’t work for you check out the lost forty llamas.

The Women’s Solution Climbing Shoe is La Sportiva’s most popular answer to difficult boulder problems and steep sport routes. Drastically downturned, this shoe is one of the best for overhangs, scummy heel hooks, greasy smears, and microscopic edges. La Sportiva’s revered P3 Power Platform was first developed specifically for this shoe, and it retains the shoe’s aggressive downturn for the shoe’s life. A shoe this technical deserves its own special rubber compound, and it’s one of the few out there to feature Vibram’s XS Grip2 rubber, which is extremely stiff around the toe box and soft, supple, and thin at the heel and arch. With more flexibility at the heel, the Solution bends to your will when you’re toeing off-angled footholds and high-stepping the top-out.
Apart from the new, flashy colors, this Solution maintains the same women-specific last and 3D-shaped heel that gave last season’s model such a solid fit. The Lock Harness System wraps the leather upper snugly around your foot for a customized feel that stretches only slightly, and the Lorica tongue adds subtle padded cushioning and ventilation. The Solution might sport the speediest closure out of any climbing shoe; its Fast Lacing System uses one hook-and-loop strap that cinches three separate sections for a snug fit that’s ready to go on-and-off after each boulder attempt.

Adjustable fast lacing and lock harness system lets you tailor the fit and secures the shoe to your foot for ultimate control all of this comes. Together to create a shoe that hooks grabs edges and smears on any feature you can find.
I’m everett i’m the athlete event. Manager for la sportiva i’m here to talk a little about the solution this is one of our higher-end sport and bouldering shoes relatively aggressive fit designed. For high performance climbing sport bouldering cutting edge traditional routes as well where you’re really looking for maximum performance out of the shoe one of the nice things about the solution is what we call our p3 platform that’s how the r and wraps around the heel here giving the shoe a permanent power of platform and down. Turn shape throughout the life a lot of times without this platform a downturn shoe you climb in it a couple times and it’s just flattened out and doesn’t have that precision the solution with the p3 platform will keep that throughout the life of the shoe giving you a really solid platform for edging we actually just introduced a women’s model as well it’s been a great hit for us the main difference between the men’s and the women’s solution is the women’s solution will actually use a little softer midsole so it’s a little more sensitive designed for a little lighter climber we honestly have a lot of guys who will move to the solution women’s as well if they’re looking for a little more sensitivity through the toe then the than the men’s version the women’s solution will also have a little narrower forefoot and heel la sportiva does use different molds between our men’s and women’s shoes you’ll see the shoe curves in pretty aggressively. And has this natural downturn shape that’s to concentrate power on your big toe and give you a really really powerful platform for super small edges. Because of that you tend to downsize the solution pretty aggressively you want to minimize the amount of volume in the shoe it really concentrates your power. And helps you have the utmost precision on small edges smears where you’ve really got to trust your feet they’ve all been hand built in italy we use high quality leathers vibram rubber so you. Get a really high performance shoe one of our most well known athletes danielwoods the solution is his go-to shoe we’ve sent him more pairs of those than anything else we actually we had one point during a trip where he was outside of our range and we couldn’t get him a pair of shoes he went and paid full retail for a pair of these shoes that’s how much he loves them pretty. Much all of his high-end boulders have been sent in a pair of solutions on the ladies side actually page causton has really taken to the solution women’s we’ve seen as many of our men jump into the solution woman’s as well again liking that little softer and more sensitive midsole so it gives you a little bit of a variety in the shoe if you’re looking for a little more edging precision or if you’re looking for a little more sensitivity for a route that requires a lot of smearing la sportiva is very very selective about their leather they actually get it from a ranch that uses no barbed wire around it. Meaning that you know normally a cow if it brushes up against barbed wire will end up with a little scrape or a scar which is a weak point in the leather la sportiva specifies that all the leather come from barbed wire less ranches that. Way you get a lot more quality in the leather you don’t have to worry about imperfections what that means for the climber is the sole is designed to be replaced you can get multiple resold out. Of our shoes whereas a lower budget shoes tend to use cheaper materials and they’ll break down over the life of one sole with the solution because it has a lot higher grade material it actually accepts multiple soles so you get a longer lifespan out of it i would say vertical to overhanging routes or what this shoes designed for if it’s lower angle climbing it’s a little aggressive for that you would actually want a little soft tissue that smears a bit better we’ve got some athletes of ours for example daniel goes down three and a. Half or maybe four sizes from history to which is ridiculous i don’t understand how he gets his foot in there but we have other athletes who are only maybe a full size down from their street shoe with the solution you are looking to maximize the performance so we do recommend downsizing everybody’s a little different what i would recommend those you want to feel your toes beginning to curl in the shoe obviously you don’t want them so painful you can’t put them on or stand to climb in them but the solution is a shoe that benefits. From downsizing the higher performance you’re looking for out of a shoe generally the smaller you want to go that way the shoe will both stretch out more to your foot and they’ll be less volume in there so you get a more precise fit.

Black Diamond designed this aggressive shoe for this kind of perfect precision, with a slight downturn that edges and grips on vertical to gently-overhung problems and routes. Medial and lateral stabilizer rands keep your foot solid when you’re edging, and the single-molded NeoFriction rubber sole won’t peel away in the same way that standard climbing shoes do.

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.
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.
Heisman from black diamond and remember. We launched this line of rock shoes last summer the knit really resonated well. With the public and what we heard was. That they wanted a shoe like this that was built on a more cambered lash to. Give us a better performance really so. That’s what the new zone shoe is knit. Upper two straps the instep strap is. Nice and wide to give us better containment here we have rubber print. For toe hooking protection, and we have a shaped mid sole the new zone will be. Available January 1st 2019 the retail. Price in the us is 139 with this shoe. What you’re gonna get is a high performance all knit the softest shoe in. Our line in terms of high performance q is the shadow have no mid sole and the. Stiffness will be the focus this has a mid sole it has a nice built up upper so. Gives you better control on small edges and then in the middle we have the focus. So the best all-around sport climbing shoe that we have is this you call the focus I’m sorry this new shoe called the zone we have a regular volume. And then we have a low volume I’m willing about low volume is that it’ll be narrower the bottom of this foot here. And low from the back of the toes all. The way to the instep okay and then. Lower heel volume here and. Lower heel arch volume here the reason. Why we won’t call it a man’s and a. Women’s is because advanced climbers are more into the idea of a fit then they. Are specifically men’s or women and if. You look at all the colors that we offer the shoes in their gender neutral so you. Can have a wide high volume footed woman. And she’d be okay with these colors and conversely we can have a narrow man. Who would be okay with these colors all. The things we wanted in it we learned. That the public wanted the same exact thing the breath ability the nice next to. Skin the quick drying it breathes so. Well that your feet just don’t sweat as much and so end of a bouldering session you’re not swimming around inside your of your shoes because of their. Acceptance of the momentum it’s why we came up with this shoe if you bought a momentum shoe and you really liked it. But you wanted more performance because now your climbing better you want to graduate up to the zone we do line the knit so that we get a little bit better. Control and edge strength just the knit. Alone as a layer is way more breathable. Then leather or microfiber and a lot of. Leathers and microfiber also get a liner for the exact same reason so it’s not. Super different other than the fact that. If you compare apples to apples the knit. Itself is more breathable cooler faster. Drying than the synthetics of any others if you compare lengths these two are the. Same size foot one allows your toes to. Stay flat one allows you to curl your toes and the difference in the two is if. You want power you want to clinch your fist okay and. This is more like clenching your fist to. Getting power into your shoes or your. Foot or this is more of a comfort this. Heel shape is a better fitting heel. Shape than this one and the reason is. That this is a high-performance shoe so. We needed to fit better in this area it. Looks the same but there’s been a lot more work into thinning out the rubber. And the stretching it so that it forms to that shape a lot better super higher performance shoes you actually have an. Extra piece, so we can put more tension in different areas to get us the optimal. Fit now we had to do a lot more work with this to get us a fit but it’s not. Going to be optimized compared to listen. To focus that’s why this is we consider this a. Price point high-performance shoe so the. Perforations of the bottom serve two purposes the first one is it echoes the. Perforations we have in the strap and. This lightens up the strata as a visual cue they tie in to one another and the other thing that’s really important is it allows this area of the outsole to be. More elastic so that we can actually put. Tension here so now as you step down on the toes here you’re gonna feel tension. All the way to the back of the heel and. It contains our foot gives us more power. In the tails

Hi katie here is get out their magazine. This is my review of the arc’teryx conseal fl approach shoe the conseils. Have lots of great features my top three. Would definitely be vibram soles nice. Long lacing so you can get just the. Right tension and to grab loops to help. You really get your foot in there the. Con seals are super awesome they’re really grippy issues are great they’ll. Totally get you to the top or the bottom of your climbing area I’ve been rock hopping climbing and even. Hiking in these shoes and overall. They’re really awesome shoes they’re. Lightweight they’re super grippy, and they’re you know decently comfortable on your foot you’re nice and lined on the inside for me i. Find these shoes fit really narrow so. They are they’re cut pretty. Narrow and i have a very wide foot so i. Am I finding them to be a little bit pinchy right here at the widest point. And i also found the sizing to be like. Totally out of whack with most other shoe companies for example i usually wear a 39 and that would equate too about. An eighth or an eight and a half these are a seven and a half us, but they are a. 39 and a third european so i got the 39. 1/3 thinking that would fit me i usually wear a 39 and i don’t mind having a little extra room for my toes but my big toe on my big foot only comes. Up to right here so I’m not really. Getting to take advantage of the little rubbery end of the toe and when i. Have been climbing in them they my feet. To sort of slide forward and backward a little bit i also found the back gave me. A fair bit of pressure when i was taking in them it’s not really their intended use so do. Take that with a grain of salt also i think there’s extra pressure because the soul is quite stiff and it’s intended. To be that way of course so that you can edge and smear and you know really make. The most out of these shoes. Did i say yet that i love the color is awesome it’s like great teal color goes with lots of things it’s really subtle so I’m a really big fan, and they’re just really like sleek and sexy looking so i have no. Complaint about shoe oh that it just. Doesn’t quite fit my foot so that’s all. Right there’s lots of brands and styles out there so these shoes are awesome and. If they fit your feet you’re probably gonna love them forget out their magazine I’m katie and that was my review of the arc’teryx concealed approach shoes for more info about these. Shoes head over to arc’teryx calm then. Be sure to subscribe and follow get out. There magazine on our youtube channel You.
