Description
The Genius receives an update while maintaining the secure fit of a laced high-performance rock shoe. More structure built into the upper material and a reinforced lacing harness offer increased overall durability. Helping facilitate natural climbing movement in a way only No-Edge Technology can offer, the adjustable fit and high-performance shape of the shoe are supported by the sophisticated asymmetrical lacing system which offers a precise fit that can be adjusted for a variety of foot shapes. The Genius is especially suitable for climbers who seek technical single pitch climbs, where having sensitivity and receiving feedback from every aspect of the foot is crucial for upwards progress.
