RAVE STRAP
The Rave Strap from Climb X is a versatile and comfortable climbing shoe, expertly designed to cater to both the enthusiastic beginner and the seasoned gym climber. This shoe strikes a perfect balance between comfort and precision, making it an ideal choice for those extended climbing sessions where both attributes are paramount.
Crafted with double stitch construction, the Rave Strap boasts durability and a refined finish. The attention to detail extends to the padded collar and heel, ensuring a snug, comfortable fit that reduces the risk of blisters and discomfort during prolonged use. The inclusion of a polypropylene midsole adds to the shoe’s structural integrity, providing a stable platform that supports the foot during various climbing maneuvers.
The one-piece binding of the Rave Strap enhances its overall strength and longevity, ensuring that the shoe withstands the rigors of regular climbing. When it comes to fit, the Rave Strap offers flexibility. Sizing up results in a more comfort-oriented fit, ideal for beginners or those preferring a relaxed feel. Conversely, sizing down leads to a more aggressive, performance-oriented fit. The toes are slightly curled in this configuration, enhancing precision for more technical climbs. It’s important to note that climbing shoes are designed to fit very tightly, with toes ideally touching the end of the shoe.
The Rave Strap comes pre-downsized, taking the guesswork out of achieving that perfect fit. For new climbers, we recommend going up a FULL size from their regular street shoe size to ensure a blend of comfort and functionality. Whether you’re tackling a challenging bouldering problem or spending a day at the gym, the Rave Strap is your go-to shoe for a reliable, comfortable climbing experience.
Apex
The Apex represents the zenith of climbing shoe technology, a masterpiece meticulously crafted by Climb X to redefine the boundaries of performance and precision. This shoe is not just a piece of equipment; it’s a testament to the relentless pursuit of climbing perfection. Engineered with the exclusive Xfactor rubber, the Apex delivers unparalleled grip and sensitivity, allowing climbers to navigate the most challenging routes with confidence and finesse.
Our latest innovation is at the heart of its design – a downturned toe and an offset concave sole tailored to master steep overhangs and complex bouldering problems. This aggressive profile ensures maximum power transfer to the toes, giving climbers the edge they need to push their limits.
But the Apex isn’t just about raw power. We’ve integrated Climb X’s innovative power upper, featuring a rubber gripping surface on the top of the toes, enhancing toe hooking capabilities and offering an extra layer of protection and control.
Comfort hasn’t been overlooked in our quest for excellence. The newly developed knit inner tongue is a game-changer, ensuring a snug, comfortable fit while offering breathability and flexibility. Combined with the most secure fit, this feature means climbers can focus entirely on their climb without any distractions.
The Apex is more than just a climbing shoe; it symbolizes our dedication to climbers and our passion for the sport. It culminates years of technological advancement, hard work, and design expertise. We proudly present the Apex – a shoe that doesn’t just meet the standards of elite climbers but sets new ones.
