What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I like the Indalo for routes where micro-edges and subtle foot movements make or break the send. The split sole gives it surprising adaptability, and the toe rubber is some of the best I've used for secure hooking. Once the Draxtor system is dialed, the fit stays locked in without crushing the toes, making it a strong option for boulders and steep sport sessions."We choose the Indalo Climbing Shoe when we want a closer connection to the rock-when subtle shifts, tiny holds, and friction demands call for shoes that react instantly. Tenaya builds this shoe around sensitivity and precision, shaping it to move with us on vertical terrain and overhanging boulders. From toe-hooks on steep sequences to smears on smooth stone, the Indalo encourages confident footwork with its adaptable profile and responsive feel. A combination of SXR Dynamics, RBRX technology, and a split sole gives the shoe balanced behavior-structured enough for micro-edges yet flexible enough to follow natural movement without loss of control. Super sticky rubber over the toe-box improves hooking performance and adds abrasion resistance, while the breathable multi-layer tongue softens pressure points and keeps the fit consistent through long days of climbing. With the Draxtor closure system securing tension across the shoe, the Indalo maintains the exact support we need on demanding holds, offering a blend of comfort and precision that keeps us focused on every move ahead.
