Evolv Shaman LV Climbing Shoes - Low Volume Aggressive Performance

An icon, cut for narrower feet. The Evolv Shaman LV Climbing Shoes are the low-volume version of one of the most iconic performance climbing shoes ever made, part of Chris Sharma's signature range and built for high-end bouldering and sport climbing on steep terrain.

The downturned, asymmetric profile and powerful tensioning keep your toes driving into the hold. The Love Bump midsole (MX-P 1.6mm, half-length) removes dead space and pushes power into the toe for better edging, while the Knuckle Box lets your toes curl naturally and cuts pressure points, so an aggressive shoe stays wearable. A Power Lock Heel and Variable Thickness Rand (VTR) improve heel hooking, fit security and durability in high-wear zones. The three-strap Velcro closure gives easy on and off with strong lockdown, the Synthratek VX synthetic upper is vegan and does not stretch over time, and 4.2mm of TRAX® SAS rubber provides exceptional grip and durability. Weight is around 9.5oz per shoe.
