Tacky

NUS climbing brings you an equipment plug! I am sure you all are tired of Noh-HOOO and our forays into Krabi and other people's houses but blah! This shoe has a tacky design argh! Sure it does attract attention, but it could had been executed in a more dashing manner, like what they did with the Cobra years ago.

As quoted from La Sportiva's site:

MIURA VS

A high performance Velcro shoe for amazing edging control and pocket climbing performance

  • Easy to use Velcro system for easy on and off convenience
  • Slingshot rand and power hinge system gives you the ultimate edging power
