The point is a little more rounded to give the toes more feeling. The liner remains fairly supple, making it ideal for intermediate climbers with normal to slightly wide feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhy is this shoe suitable for women’s feet?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter taking scans of hundreds of female climbers’ feet, we have taken into account the anatomical features of women’s feet to ensure comfort and precision.\nAs a result, this shoe has a smaller metatarsal perimeter and heel volume compared to the Men’s Vertika Soft.\nThis shoe is also a great option for men with narrow feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow does it provide precision and comfort?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe slightly arched, asymmetrical shape, combined with moderate heel tension, gives greater precision and power to the big toe.\nThe 3-part construction of the toe box provides plenty of volume over the top of the toes. This ensures comfort and excellent sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the shoe’s sole made of?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eXS GRIP Vibram® 4 mm sole. A soft rubber with good grip.\nCombined with the flexible construction of the shoe’s upper, this gives the foot excellent sensitivity on the holds and very good grip, particularly on flat or rounded holds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDoes this shoe get bigger over time?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo prevent the shoe from stretching over time, we designed the shoe’s upper with lined synthetic leather (thickness: 2.5 mm).\nFor breathability and foot comfort, we’ve designed a wide tongue at the front made from stretchy and highly ventilated 3D PET mesh.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow long does the sole last?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe better a rubber’s grip, the faster it wears out, especially in indoor climbing.\nThat’s why we’ve chosen to work with Vibram, a renowned specialist. We selected the rubber that offers the best balance between durability and grip.\nOur tests show that on average, rubber wears away in 6 months. This can vary depending on how you place your feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow does the wear indicator work?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo help you know when to resole without risking damage to the shoe, our engineers have developed a wear indicator in the liner.\nThe wear indicator appears when 2\/3 of the lining has been worn away, which will give you time to make an appointment to have your shoe resoled.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhere to resole your shoes when the soles are worn?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIs your sole worn out? Do not throw away your shoe.\nVisit our Decathlon stores to find out where to resole your shoe.\nWith your sole changed, you can climb once again with the shoe already moulded to your feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAny advice on choosing the right shoe size?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are a climber working to improve your skills, you can buy them tighter (1\/2 -1 size below normal, for example), but it’s important they don’t hurt, so that your foot can develop mobility, proprioception, and strength.\nIf you are an advanced climber, we suggest you take the time to try different sizes (1 to 2 sizes below normal) to find the best compromise between comfort and compression for more force when pushing off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow to care for your climbing shoes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur first piece of advice is to never (under any circumstance) machine wash your shoes. Thermal and mechanical stress could damage them. We recommend that you wash them by hand, either with a sponge soaked in clean water or with a sponge soaked in soapy water (Marseilles soap), being sure to air-dry them at a stable temperate and avoid drying them on a radiator or in direct sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWant to take it up a notch? This shoe enables you to feel the holds and tackle technical moves while remaining forgiving of minor mistakes. Its shape is particularly suited to women’s feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item large--one-half medium--one-half productFeature productFeature--easy-to-breathe\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid--full\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item one-fifth productFeature-icon\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"productFeature-image\" src=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/contents.mediadecathlon.com\/b65364\/pic.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item four-fifths productFeature-content\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"productFeature-title\"\u003e[Fitting comfort]\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"productFeature-description\"\u003eBallerina shape, minimal layering of material.
