Solution Comp Men
Description
The Solution Comp is a softer and more sensitive re-boot on the original fan-favorite. With more rubber coverage on top of the toe and a more traditional, tapered heel, the Comp allows surgical precision on micro holds, enables powerful toe hooks and foot jams and provides super precise heel-toe camming performance.
• Patented figure-8 sling-shot tensioning focuses power in the toes
• Updated heel is softer, more sensitive and lower profile to increase pull-power on small features
• Fast Lacing System™ with heel-lock harness system • Softer midsole for increased sensitivity and faster break-in
• Increased toe rubber coverage for unparalleled toe-hooking and jammin

The original Solution appealed to many climbers and became an exceedingly popular shoe at the gyms and boulders. The subtle adjustments introduced in the Solution Comp should only add to this appeal. It provides the same precision at the toe while adding lots of sensitivity to the heel. The only drawback is a slight increase in price. We believe the improvements are easily worth the few extra bucks.
The gym-focused Solution Comp features a softer midsole, bigger scumming patch, and narrower heel than the original—and was a runaway hit with testers. It broke in quicker than the OG model and performed better on volumes and smears, but the sensitive, form-fitting heel was the most winning tweak. “It’s more pared-down, which made it super-glommy around arêtes and on volumes,” said one tester. The updates paired perfectly with tried-and-true features like the pointy, precise toebox, downturned P3 platform for mega “bite” on steeps and micros, sticky 3.5mm Vibram XS Grip 2 sole, and Fast Lacing System. And the Comps performed just as well bouldering outdoors.
