Sensor
Description
When it comes to the SENSOR, the name says it all: it is the most sensitive shoe in our range and has been specially developed for climbing and bouldering on artificial holds as well as for competitions. The combination of a minimalistic midsole, high asymmetry, and a powerful downturn makes the SENSOR a highly sensitive and performance-oriented climbing shoe. An innovative system with a double slingshot prevents the pre-tensioning from waning over time. The Vibram XS Grip sole and a large toe patch provide outstanding grip exactly where it is needed. And that is not the only thing that is special about the sole: we have also varied the thickness from 1 to 4 mm to aid sensitivity—with lots of rubber where you need it and less where a good sense of feel is key. Thanks to the somewhat narrower, performance-oriented cut, the SENSOR fits the foot snuggly.

In many ways I really like the Sensor. It fits well, it's well made, and seems like a step up from previous Red Chili shoes; however, the issues regarding line of sight are too significant a factor in terms of its performance, as it's very difficult to get a precise foot placement when you're left guessing where the edge on your shoe might actually be. For me, unfortunately, this is the decider.
Without doubt the best Red Chili shoe we've seen in a long time, giving the range a facelift and hinting at a brilliantly bright future under the tutelage of new parent company, Edelrid. A true weapon of the indoor climbing world, the Sensor is absolutely up there with the best comp style shoes out there and I've loved every minute with it. What a shoe!
