From overhung to vertical, the Black Diamond Method Climbing Shoe delivers on performance and comfort. The stiff midsole and tensioned heel rand support us on long vertical pitches, while the moderate downturn and curvature help us maintain power and precision when in the cave. Rather than being cut from a single sheet, the high-performance rubber is molded to reduce waste, save grams, and boost comfort, all while remaining Black Diamond's stickiest rubber for reliable bite on greasy micro edges.
