Tulson Tolf Qubit Invernal
Tulson Tolf
The Qubit Invernal is a midsole-free, slightly downturned velcro shoe from Tulson Tolf for sport climbing and bouldering. Tulson Tolf lists it as medium-width with a narrow heel.
The Qubit Invernal is the Qubit with a thermal sock lining: the same foldable climbing shoe for runners, with a slight downturn, a velcro closure, no midsole and a 2 mm Vibram XS Grip sole. It feels soft and thin rather than supportive. It suits sport climbing, bouldering and alpine running.
