100% Synthetic. Rubber sole. RIGHT FOOT FORWARD - Designed for new climbers set on improvement, the Tarantula delivers comfort, convenience, and versatility; Sticky FriXion soles grip both rock and plastic with ease; Low asymmetrical build ushers climbers from the training wall to outdoor pitches. ADJUSTABLE CLOSURE - The Tarantula's adjustable hook-and-loop closure system is adaptable to varying foot shapes and widths; The easy-on, easy-off design means you'll spend more time climbing and less time gearing up. COMFORT AND PERFORMANCE - The unlined leather upper is breathable and keeps your feet dry all day; With its RL 45 last, the Tarantula's shape is just aggressive enough to learn how to edge, yet offers ample interior volume for a comfortable introduction to climbing. BUILT TO LAST - This indoor/outdoor climbing shoe is constructed from high quality materials; 1.8mm LaspoFlex at the midsole and 5mm FriXion RS at the sole make the Tarantula as stable as it is durable.

Not Worth the Price

When I tried this product, I found it to be very uncomfortable and difficult to use. The sizing was completely off and caused blisters on my feet. The only positive was the design, but it was not enough to make up for the discomfort. Overall, I do not recommend this product for anyone looking to start climbing. Save your money and look for something better in the Sports and Outdoors category.

Pros
  • Nice design
Cons
  • Uncomfortable and bad sizing

Perfect fit for my outdoor activities

A friend recommended these shoes to me but I was hesitant to buy them because of the price. I've never bought climbing shoes, let alone European sizing, but after cross-referencing many reviews and looking at online sizing charts, I decided to take the plunge. The shoes arrived as expected and fit perfectly. Keep in mind this is not the super aggressive climbing shoe I like as a beginner but definitely makes a huge difference and works great right off the bat. I have fairly wide legs, but they…

Pros
  • 100% synthetic
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

Order 1-1.5 sizes smaller than your "comfortable " street shoes!

I just received these and felt compelled to write a review as I think the biggest question everyone has is what size should I order?

However, I wear US men's size 10.5 in Under Armor shoes, size 11 in Nike/most other brands shoes - these are all my street shoes. I wear a size 11 in Saucony running shoes. I ordered a size 42.5 (or a US men's size 9.5) after realizing they are large…

Pros
  • Rubber Sole
Cons
  • I'm writing back
