Five Ten

Hiangle Climbing Shoe

Stealth C4 Rubber is a specialized rubber developed by Five Ten that offers exceptional grip and durability. Its high friction properties allow climbers to maintain traction on various surfaces, making it ideal for challenging climbs. The unique formulation balances stickiness and stiffness, ensuring that you can confidently tackle both sport climbing and bouldering routes.

The downturn profile features a pointed toe that angles downward, allowing climbers to apply more power to their toes when standing on small footholds. This design is particularly beneficial for aggressive climbing styles, such as bouldering and sport climbing on overhangs, as it helps you maximize your foot placement and control.

An asymmetrical curvature means the shoe's toe box is angled towards the big toe, which enhances precision and power transfer during climbs. This design is especially advantageous for aggressive climbing, as it allows for better control on steep and technical routes, helping you to tackle challenging climbs with confidence.

The hook-and-loop closure system, commonly known as Velcro, provides a secure and adjustable fit, making it easy to put on and take off your climbing shoes quickly. This is particularly useful for climbers who need to change shoes frequently during sessions, ensuring you can focus on your climbing without hassle.

The midsole is a crucial component that sits between the shoe's upper and outsole. In the Hiangle, the midsole is made of thermoplastic and Bontex, providing essential support and stiffness. A stiffer midsole enhances stability on small footholds and improves power transfer from your foot to the shoe, allowing for more effective climbing.

The combination of Stealth C4 Rubber, a downturn profile, asymmetrical curvature, and a hook-and-loop closure system ensures that the Hiangle Climbing Shoe offers both performance and comfort. The shoe's design allows for a snug fit that adapts to your foot shape, while the materials used provide the necessary support and flexibility for long climbing sessions, making it a great choice for climbers of all levels.
