Description

The Black Diamond Method S climbing shoe is specially designed for demanding sport climbing on rock, but also offers outstanding performance in the gym. The medium fit for men strikes an excellent balance between comfort and performance.

The Method S offers excellent edge control and power transmission with a relatively soft sole - for a great feel. The rubberised side strips ensure that the foot is always held in place and the power is transferred to the right areas thanks to the preload. The large toe-hook patch and the three-dimensionally extended heel provide plenty of grip and power for hooks.

Getting into the shoe is made easier thanks to a tongue that is particularly comfortable against the skin, while the quick fastener straps allow you to adjust the shoe quickly and optimally - a comfortable advantage when bouldering too.

Conclusion from Bergzeit tester Stefan: "For me, the Method S is a really successful indoor climbing shoe. It's soft and sensitive. I would also recommend the shoe to regular boulderers who are on the move at medium bouldering difficulty levels (even if it's not a beginner's shoe).
