The Evolv Predator is a down-turned climbing shoe that is great for aggressive climbing on vertical to insanely overhanging routes. It has undergone a re-design, making it lighter, more supple and giving it a glove like fit. The asymmetric down-turned design ensures you can front-point and pull on tiny crystals and toe-in on pockets with surgical precision. While sensitive enough to feel the crystals, the non-stretch synthetic leather will give you a load of edging power for more than vertical faces. This specialty shoe is one of Evolv's top selling performance shoes in Europe and it is definitely worth considering if you're into overhanging routes or steep boulder problems.
