... for long days on multi-pitches, or for users who just prefer a bit of comfort in a hard wearing rock shoe, the Momentum is well worth considering. View more
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 Solution is a surprisingly versatile shoe. Though they look like robot hawk talons designed to catch giant mutant squirrels from the future, they're actually pretty comfortable... When a pitch demands a few jams in a flair or a short crack section, the solutions are more than up to the task, excelling in finger cracks and flares thanks to their low toe profile. View more
I was surprised at how easily (and confidently) I could stand on small bumps and smears as I worked out the technical sequences. View more
Incredibly versatile. I’ve used them on steep boulder problems in the gym, techy sandstone face climbs and steep thugfests. 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
From crack climbing to steep pockets, the Skwamas will keep you on your toes. Where they fall short is in precision edging and slabs... The Skwama holds the foot in an aggressive shape, without crunching toes or cutting into heels. On technical cracks, smeary feet, and pockets, the La Sportiva Skwamas really shine. Since they are so comfortable and easy to put on and take off, they also make for a great cragging shoe and bouldering shoe. 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 Mythos are one of the oldest climbing shoes out there and still one of the best selling. They stand out for just how soft and comfortable they are. 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
It is pointy with a high level of asymmetry (the shoe really emphasizes your big toe) meaning the toes can easily be placed precisely into pockets or onto small edges. All this combined with a down-turned toe means that you can grab edges and pockets with your toes and generate more force through them on steep ground. View more
