• 100% Lorica microfibre.

• The X-tension rubber maximises edging on thin foot holds. Relaxed heel cup and good foot rigidity.
• Sole with traditional internal edge
• Rubber: Formula Rubber Enduro (5 mm) which will give long life.
• Boldrini stiffness ranking: Extra Supple | Supple | Rigid | Extra Rigid
• Sizes: 32-46 with half sizes (not every size available in stock, check the size drop-down above and contact us with any queries)

Lee's comments:

• Of the models we currently stock, these have the pointiest toe which I really like.
• Heaps of toe rubber for toe-hooks
• Heel cup is awesome, nicely slingshot to fit like a glove
• Toe box shape and slight downturn reminds me of those Five Ten Dragons some USA boulderers wear
• My sizing: 39.5 Muira, 39.5 Solution, 40 Vision, 40.5 Testarossa, 40.5 Mago, 41 Optimus Prime = 40 Apache Light
