The New Helix has been designed to help emerging climbers progress swiftly through the grades, with a particular focus on the style and techniques of modern indoor climbing yet supportive enough for climbing outdoors. It offers sublime comfort with its proven last, luxurious padded tongue and the new heel design, which offers a snug fit for the user to exploit the built in heel hook zone, without Achilles discomfort. Underfoot, the midsole provides enough support for the foot as technique and strength develop, but equally allows sensitivity and enables the user to exploit the super new SSR1.0 rubber. Finished with a simple speed lace this shoe provides easy entry and fit adjustment and is destined to be a modern classic.
If you're only going to buy one shoe for all your climbing, then make it an all-rounder. We check out six versatile models at the performance end of the market.
