A comfortable soft and split sole shoe suited towards indoors bouldering

Tips for sizing your foot correctly:

Using a tape measure for best accuracy, measure from heel to toe and compare to the MM section. Round up if in between sizes.
Stick close to your street shoe size:
- if you are wanting a tighter fit, only go down half a size.
- If you are wanting more comfortable shoes, go up half a size.

A precision weapon for hard rope climbing. The Float is a comfy performance climbing shoe designed for climbers who want comfiness but also performance at the same time. Its tight profile and downturned shape focus power directly through the toe for technical face climbing, crimpy sequences, and steep terrain.

Who it's for Intermediate or Advanced climbers focused on bouldering or lead climbing. Those chasing a shoe which handles all types of climbing well.

When to choose it Choose the Float when you're specifically focused on bouldering and want a shoe that is soft for smearing but also rewards precise footwork. For all-day comfort or multi-pitch, step back to the Advancer or Havoc.

How it fits and feels Tight and performance-oriented, your toes will be curled and working. This is intentional.

What this has going for it:

Bouldering focus The shoe is great at all types of bouldering either indoors or out
Precision-focused Tight fit translates to better power transfer on technical sequences.
Downturned performance Excels on overhangs and steep technical face climbing.
Roomier toe box this shoe comes with a wider toe box but narrower heel
