Fast Lacing System®
A patented, highly adjustable lacing system which is quick to use and ensures the perfect fit.
Futura
Description
Modern. Revolutionary. Futuristic. Futura. The most versatile No-Edge™ climbing shoe within the family of shoes. Designed and developed to make climbing even more fun, if that was even possible; the Futura combines comfort and foot sensitivity with the ability to be a high performer in indoor and outdoor settings. The patented Fast Lacing System™ guarantees the foot and shoe are perfectly in sync. No-Edge™ technology reduces the barrier between the climber and their vertical test. Climber, shoe, and wall have never been so closely connected.
• Patented No-Edge™ technology gives you the ultimate rubber-to-foothold contact area for maximum friction on the widest variety of foothold shapes. Compared to a traditionally edged shoe, the rounded toe allows for enhanced sensitivity, precision, and grip as the foot conforms more closely to the irregularities found on footholds.
• Enjoy increased rubber longevity as the toe profile spreads wears more evenly.
• P3® technology lets you crank on overhangs and maintains the shoe’s shape and performance over time, ensuring consistent performance even after prolonged use.
• Patented fast lacing system™ allows for quick and easy adjustment of the shoe's fit.
• Synthetic and microfiber upper: offers a comfortable and breathable fit that molds to the shape of the foot over time.

No Edge Concept™
The No-edge concept eliminates the traditional "edges" of the sole. This allows the foot to come into closer contact with the rock surface. Thus enhancing foot sensitivity and allowing optimum contact on the hold. With the No-edge construction, climbing becomes more fluid, instinctive and harmonious.
P3®
Permanent Power Platform used in climbing shoes to maintain the downturned shape of the shoe for the life of the shoe.
Slip Lasted
The method of footwear construction in which the upper is sewn into a sock and then slipped onto the last. Slip lasted shoes normally do not have an insole and get their "stiffness" from the midsole which is located just above the outsole. Slip lasted rock climbing shoes tend to be sensitive like the Mythos and Cobra and less stiff than board lasted shoes.
VIBRAM® XS Grip2
Represents the natural evolution of VIBRAM® XS Grip, the new XS Grip2 delivers highly improved grip, while maintaining consistent performance in all temperatures. XS Grip 2 is the best solution in pure friction situations while remaining durable and even-wearing.
