“Bouldering is experiencing an unstoppable growth. That's why I'm convinced that slippers have a bright future. So when I developed the Nacho with our athletes we knew what to aim for but were still so psyched by the finished shoe and its awesome level of sensitivity and sock-like fit.” Stefan Glowacz

The new Nacho is a full-blooded slipper built to complement and complete Red Chili's high-end climbing shoe range. As befits a true slipper the Nacho is sharp and precise but stays soft and sensitive: a feeling achieved by a perfectly positioned razor-thin midsole and an integral rand for the slim, sticky toe-patch. The Nacho has a super secure fit created by reducing pre-tension and using a lightweight, lo-stretch synthetic upper and slingshot heel. This combination is backed by strong elastic patches in just the right place, making for easy on and offs, and essentially in a slipper, once on it stays put!
