Shaman Lace Climbing Shoe

Synthratek VX is a synthetic material used in the upper part of our climbing shoes. It mimics the feel of suede while being vegan-friendly, meaning it contains no animal products. This material is highly durable and has minimal stretch over time, ensuring that your shoes maintain their fit and performance, allowing you to focus on your climb without worrying about your gear.

The Love Bump is a unique design feature in the shoe's midsole that elevates the toes slightly, positioning them in a crimped position. This design enhances your power and precision on small footholds, allowing you to use your toes more effectively. If you’re looking to improve your climbing technique, this feature can make a significant difference.

Trax SAS is a specialized rubber used for the outsole of our climbing shoes, known for its stiffness and ultra-sticky properties. This means it provides exceptional grip on various surfaces, helping you maintain traction on rock faces and climbing holds. With Trax SAS, you can climb with confidence, knowing your shoes will stick when you need them to.

An asymmetrical curvature means the shoe is designed to angle your toes towards the inside, creating a more aggressive fit. This shape is crucial for climbers who require precision and power on small holds. By positioning your toes in this way, you can achieve better foot placements, enhancing your overall climbing performance.

A downturned profile features a toe box that angles downwards, which helps to concentrate power on your toes. This design is particularly beneficial for steep climbs, as it allows for stronger foot placements and improved performance on challenging routes. If you’re tackling difficult climbs, a downturned profile can give you the edge you need.

While these climbing shoes feature advanced technologies like the Love Bump and Trax SAS rubber, they are designed to cater to a wide range of climbers, including beginners. The fit and performance enhancements can help new climbers develop their skills while providing the necessary support and comfort. As you progress, these shoes will continue to meet your climbing needs.
