Category: Climbing Shoes

The Tarantula, with its focus on comfort, is easy to use and easy to get on and off in a flash. The unlined leather upper provides excellent moisture management and stretches enough to make them a joy to put on day after day. The forefoot shape is rounded and has a higher volume for the climber not looking to mangle their feet. Yet, the slight asymmetry is aggressive enough to perform on steeper routes and trickier moves. The highly adjustable closure system adapts to various foot types and shapes.

Edward O. ★★★★★

The unlined leather upper breathes so well that my feet don't feel clammy even after a long session, and they slip on and off effortlessly. The comfort is exactly what I was hoping for—no painful pressure points right out of the box.

Mia ★★★★★

Was a little worried about the break-in period, but these were comfortable from the very first session. The velcro closure makes getting them on and off between climbs so quick, and the leather has stretched just enough to feel like a custom fit.

Alexander ★★★★★

The unlined leather upper really does keep my feet from getting sweaty during a long session, and the slight stretch molded perfectly to my foot shape. Finally found a comfortable shoe that doesn't require a painful break-in period.
