Description

<p>The Niad VCS Climbing Shoes from Five Ten - here the men's model - are great all-rounders for many occasions: whether small steps in limestone, the climbing hall, crack climbing in granite, or even a sandstone friction step, the Niad VCS is a great all-rounder.</p><p>With its neutral, slightly asymmetrical last and a medium-stiff midsole, it gives you a lot of support with good comfort. Five Ten and parent company Adidas have worked particularly hard on the heel, which sits snugly and comfortably here, while the moderate preload ensures good power transmission.</p><p>The tried-and-tested Stealth® C4 sole provides the necessary friction even for small steps, while the Velcro fastener allows you to put them on and off quickly. The Niad VCS offers a good combination of comfort and performance, making it just as suitable for the first few metres of climbing as it is for more ambitious climbers.</p>
