The Salewa Crow GTX Men's is a versatile and lightweight mountaineering shoe. This is an all-round boot that suits a wide variety of uses such as summer mountaineering, technical hikes and via ferrata. They're also crampon compatible, so it can be used on glacier hikes. The crampon-compatible Vibram® Mulaz soles are ideal for most mountaineering conditions as they are self-cleaning and grippy, offering traction in mixed terrain. The Crow GTX integrates the Salewa 3F System for firm ankle and heel support,  as well as the climbing system to ensure that it fits perfectly around your foot and Flex Collar for comfort during descents.

Rock Technologies Dry 5 Liquid Chalk has over 70% alcohol / ethanol content and therefore can have disinfectant effects. It is manufactured in the UK and is recommended for use on climbing walls and is also a very good idea during and post Covid-19 for outdoor bouldering / short routes.

Salewa Vultur Vertical GTX Men's are a warm B3 rated boot, ideal for Scottish Winter, Norwegian icefall and hard Alpine climbing. They have a super tough Microfibre upper with an insulated Gore-Tex Duratherm XL lining for totally waterproof and warm comfort. Following on from previous B3 boots, the Salewa UN Vultur Vertical GTX has taken things further with a flex collar to maximise comfort around the lower calf and a multi-layer MFF+ footbed which allows you to fine tune the fit for volume and width in the forefoot.

The Salewa Vultur Evo GTX Women's is a hybrid crampon-compatible, rigid women’s alpine mountaineering boot (stiff end of B2) with a hardwearing Perwanger suede upper and waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX® lining for optimized climate comfort.

The Scarpa Manta Tech GTX Women's are a B2 rated mountain boot suitable for 4-season use. It is the 7th incarnation in the Manta Tech series and this version features Gore-Tex Insulated Comfort lining for added warmth, allowing it to perform in colder conditions and even better in high European alpine conditions when summer weather turns nasty.

The Scarpa Manta Tech GTX are a classic B2 rated boot that's been updated with Goretex Insulated comfort lining for more warmth, partial TPU rand to lessen weight and a more precise fit at the toe, and a Vibram outsole unit with TPU heel insert for semi-automatic crampons. Perfect for classic snow ridges, glacier travel, and versatile mountaineering performance.

The Scarpa Instinct VS-R is a softer version of the classic instinct shoe. Great for a range of sport climbing and bouldering, but really dialled down for those who climb mostly on plastic, those with a lighter frame, or for those looking to broaden their shoe collection. The VS-R maintains characteristics of the original in terms of fit and build, however the softer Vibram Grip 2 compound provides a higher sensitivity and feel on the wall.

The Scarpa Drago LV offers unbelievable levels of performance and has now been made as a low volume version, for those with narrower feet. It has all the same characteristics of the original, but with a snugger fit. Made for technical high-grade bouldering and competitions, the Scarpa Drago LV with Vibram XS Grip 2 rubber will give you the maximum grip to the wall. It has an aggressive downturn for steep routes, but due to the softness of the sole unit and rubber, the Drago also performs incredibly well on slabs, smearing over the smallest of holds with ease.

The Scarpa Drago is a super sensitive and soft climbing shoe, it's ideal for technical bouldering. Designed with comfortable microsuede uppers and a fast and easy one strap system, the toe area features lots of rubber coverage to help stick tricky toe hooks. The Vibram XS Grip will keep you feeling secure and the iconic Instinct VS heel design really cups the back of the foot.

The Scarpa Vapour V is a high-performance climbing shoe that balances precision, comfort, and durability. Its slightly asymmetrical, downturned shape excels on steep sport routes and technical boulders, while the microfibre upper, padded air mesh tongue, and twin Velcro closure ensure a snug, secure fit. The Bi-Tension rand enhances toe power without discomfort, and the full-length Talyn midsole evenly distributes force for optimal support. Upgraded with a harder Ilga toe rand for improved edging and Vibram XS Edge rubber for long-lasting grip, the Vapour V offers exceptional performance and can be resoled to extend its lifespan.

The Scarpa Vapour Lace is probably the best all round climbing shoe in the world.. and it just got better! A high tension boot with a narrow last and central toe point makes the Vapour Lace ideal for a close fitting and precise fit. That centre toe point also works well for those with Morten's Toe. The Vapour Lace is slightly downturned and stiff, to give extra purchase on steep, small holds. This is compounded using Vibram's XS Edge rubber technology.

The Scarpa Mescalito is a technical shoe designed for long approaches and more technical scrambling. The Mescalitio is built around the new Vibram Dynamis sole unit using Lite Base technology, which significantly reduces the weight of the shoe. This is combined with a bi-density EVA midsole which gives great cushioning, especially compared to more traditional approach shoes. The outsole is Vibram Megagrip for maximum grip and traction on smooth surfaces.

The Tenaya Iati is a relatively aggressive climbing shoe that's great for both short, powerful boulders and longer sport routes. The Iati is comfortable from the word go and has been designed with Vibram XS Grip2 rubber which excels at allowing you to use those tiny footholds and sketchy smears. Constructed with a combination of both leather and synthetic, the shoe is breathable, although not super stretchy so the shoe and fit does not sag too much over time.

The Tenaya Ra has been a revelation for many narrow footed male climbers and female climbers alike. It also means that our range for women is bigger than it initially looks. The Ra is a relatively comfy Velcro fastening climbing shoe offering very good levels of allrounder performance for use at the wall, sport climbing or trad climbing. The combination of materials, fit and and Vibram XS Grip 4mm outsole make the Ra a shop favourite and one that customers are returning to again and again.

The Tenaya Oasi LV is the low volume version of the extremely popular Oasi climbing shoe and has been specifically designed for female feet. It is a high-performance rockshoe that works equally as well on vertical walls, smearing on slabs and on overhanging routes. The shoe uses new technologies invented by Tenaya that have entirely rethought the way rockshoes are made. The end result is a shoe that fulfils all of the above, is amazingly precise and yet still manages to be extremely comfortable compared to almost all other high-end shoes available on the market.

The Tenaya Masai is a flat performance shoe that's very similar to the Five-Ten Anasazi Pink, just with less volume over the toes and a choice of red and black laces. Tenaya are a Spanish based rock shoe company who have a large European following, with there amazing design and utilization of the best rubber around they are the current shoe of choice for former world climbing champion Ramon Julian and a favourite of 9a onsight superstar Alex Megos.
