They have lived up to their reputation as 'edging machines', without forfeiting performance on crack and slab. View more
Undoubtedly one of the best traditional climbing shoes I have ever worn. They are comfortable, offer great protection while jamming and edge powerfully. View more
The asymmetric toe box and slingshot heel give the power, whilst the stiff last offers support as it is one solid piece. The fact that they are comfortable too just adds to their quality, I can wear these shoes for long stretches without having to take them off. View more
The Katana Lace’s combination of slight downturn and asymmetry plus middle-of-the-road stiffness provides a powerful ability to climb straight-in cracks. The things that make the Katana Lace good for vertical edging (slight downturn/asymmetry, medium-stiff sole, etc.) also help with technical footwork on hard crack climbs, without being so aggressive or uncomfortable as to prohibit climbing cracks straight-in.

The 5.10 Anasazi VCS is the unicorn of the climbing world: a hyper precise all-around crusher that doesn't hurt so much you want to throw it off a cliff. Eminently comfortable without being sloppy, these shoes manage to be both decently stiff and incredibly sensitive. View more
The low profile toe makes the Moccasyms best suited to crack climbing hand sized or bigger at Indian Creek, and once these shoes stretch out, they're nice for all day easy scrambles, or training in the gym. Their lack of stiffness and support will make your toes strong. View more
Edging on a dime' finally had meaning to me, and I quickly learned to trust holds that previously felt impossible to use. View more
Whenever I need to stand on tiny little nothings, I'll reach for the Katakis. View more
If you're after an edge, look no further; if you're after sensitivity it's probably best to look elsewhere. Unashamedly focussed on the trad/sport climber who primarily climbs on vertical ground... View more
... the Otaki is well suited towards hanging around on small holds/edges (i.e. trad climbing) or using even smaller edges to move quickly and efficiently upwards to the lower-off (i.e. sport climbing). The stiffness and support that the boot offers makes it quite versatile, particularly for the UK climber, as it is well suited towards a wide variety of different angles from edgy slabs, through vertical walls, to gently overhanging terrain.

They edge well and because they’re not too stiff, smear like you wouldn’t believe... this shoe had me standing on sandstone smears like they were giant edges. View more
Whether I was pumping out limestone sport pitches, or dicing my way up sandstone slabs, or heel- and toe-hooking sandy boulder problems at Joe’s Valley, I was impressed with the shoe’s edging power. Small dishes, smears, pockets, and nubbins were no problem. View more
... a great entry into aggressive performance shoes for kids with growing feet. The performance is worlds better than the intermediate climbing shoes we tested, and the P3 platform gives it just the right amount of downturn. Many women with small feet love it for the price and the softness with the same technical features they've grown to love in the adult model. View more
