Climb X Rave Strap Climbing Shoe 2018 (9.5, Gray), Grey, 6 Narrow

Shoes look and feel great. Sharp tip very good. Important mistake i made. IT SAYS NARROW meaning it will fit your normal show size, if you already cant tell im new to this, so if you are a beginner then get your normal size

The shoe looks much better than on the pictures. I am happy with the purchase. The shoe fits better than most climbing shoes that I tried in the store. I had to try a few sizes and figured out the shoe fits perfectly if I order a full size up. Solid product at an unbelievably affordable price. 100% recommend!

I've had these shoes for about 7 months now, and just completed my first soft V4/6b. So far, they haven't held me back. I've used them at 6 indoor climbing gyms, and twice outdoors. At every climbing gym and outdoor venue, the friction has been good, except for fiberglass and resin molded walls, and limestone. These shoes are medium hard (after warming up), and just don't gain much purchase on these smooth holds. I find that I have to press extra hard with my toes to get enough friction. After 7 months of twice weekly use, the toe rubber has worn only a little bit, so they still have quite a bit of life left. Overall, these are very good shoes at a great price, and I would recommend these for beginners like me.

If you have wider feet, this is a good choice. I found sizing to be accurate to my normal sport shoes. Only complaint is there is a wear spot near my small toe on both feet, but at least it doesn't feel like I've put on a pair of vices whilst still being a good fit.

tres bon qualité prix

The Climb X Rave was put to the test in a High Alpine Desert environment . I find this brand of shoe , the X Rave, in particular to be one of the most practical tools in climbing features of Sandstone Slab, Towers and Crack. While wearing the shoe, conditions often varied from chossy to sandy and chossy ( poor or degrading features of rock) . This shoe was given a 5 out of 5 Star review . The Climb X Rave went well beyond my expectations . This product has earned a climber's trust! Features of the Climb X Rave Strap climbing shoe include : - Velcro strapping, optimizing the fit of the shoe -Double heel loop strap, optimizing functional usage and baggage . -Layered instep padding ( greater fit accuracy and comfort) -Soft side paneling ,a breathable material that feels lovely against the skin. -The internal sole of the shoe is made 100% of hemp. This is a GAME CHANGER! The shoe does not retain bodily scents , sweat, or excessive heat. I decreased my sweaty foot smell and lowered my impact on the environment all at once! While wearing this shoe I climbed mainly Sandstone Slab and sand stone crack and Multipitch. The positive arch support, despite having a wide foot helped provide and assist when edging and smearing. I suffered no loss of stitching . Well mounted rubber round the entirety of the shoe significantly slowed degradation of rubber.Thoughtful placement of heel material, provides soft contact to the back of the heel in the Achilles tendon. The fabric of this shoe , helped preserve the overall health of my foot as well as provide exceptional comfort. I noticed this to be a real asset in my ability to work odd movements for off width cracks with greater comfort as well as locking in on the ankle during more technical boulder problems. I highly recommend this shoe for a range of climbers. Indoor gym climbers, particularly beginners will find the X Rave to be as comfortable and aggressive as needed for day to day sessions. I recommend this style of shoe as a responsible choice for commercial property owners as the hemp insole provides more sustainable and healthier use of industry products as well as provides a level of comfort to all new or youth member participants. This shoe is also excellent for the multi-pitcher that needs a more comfortable yet reliable option. The price point on the shoe seals the deal! I’ve certainly extended myself further for shoes that do not compare with the overall performance and comfort, not to mention bold style of the X Rave. I plan to loyally purchase from this company!
