Clue
Description
Got no clue? We got it! With its particularly sensitive and strongly performance-oriented construction and lots of rubber, the CLUE is the ideal choice for bouldering problems, slabs and demanding overhang climbing. The aggressive shape brings a great deal of tension despite the particularly soft Vibram XS sole for optimal sensitivity. The stretch tongue allows for a comfortable step-in and still keeps the shoe reliably on the foot. With its timeless design, the CLUE is the perfect shoe to be fired up for sending today.

In Climbing‘s yearly review of the best new shoes, tester Justen Sjong—a climbing coach and impressive all-around climber who has established 5.14 big walls on El Capitan—noted the shoe’s great grabbing ability—an 8 out of 10—thanks to its ample flex (you can manually sandwich the Clue both upward and downward) and sticky, and half-length sole. “This is a great shoe for the intermediate to advanced climber who climbs in the gym 80 percent of the time and 20 percent outside on 10-degree or steeper rock,” said Sjong. The semi-stiff midsole also offered some edging/jibbing bite, enabling us to climb indoors up to V7 and 5.12+ on semi-small to small jibs.
