The updated Vapor is a technical lace-up that provides serious stability and performance. Its supportive midsole and full length Vibram XS Edge feel right at home on vertical to off vertical face climbing and crack climbing. A full-length lace to toe closure systems offers high adjustability and a precision fit. The Vapor?s new all leather upper features welded TPU overlays to minimize stitching, increase comfort, eliminate hotspots and to protect from abrasion. A unique dual-density rubber toe patch combines two different rubber densities into a one single piece providing both stiffness and stickiness right where you need it. Our PAF heel system alleviates pressure off of the achilles tendon while standing on dime sized edges in technical terrain.

First, about my testing: I used these shoes for two steady months of mainly granite crack and face climbing, with a couple days of techy limestone, quartzite, and gneiss thrown in to round things out. Throughout this time I also tested the new Katana Lace, a fantastic edging shoe itself, and I often climbed the same pitch twice wearing both pairs. The Katana Lace is stiff, downturned, and, most importantly, has a very pointed and low-profile toe. In Squamish, where I primarily climbed, many of the crags and multi-pitches are vertical or less, which means there are a lot of fun, “hard” routes that have thin, tips-crack cruxes. This is where I began to pick sides in my shoe testing, as, compared to the Katana Lace, the Vapor Lace has a noticeably taller toe profile, which I struggled to slip into 0.2–0.4-sized cracks.
