Unparallel

The Regulus is a stiff, aggressively downturned velcro shoe from Unparallel for bouldering and sport climbing. Typically sized 0.5 EU sizes below street size. Of 7 user reports, 5 find the toes tight and 4 find the heel tight. In stock at 7 shops from 79.50 EUR.
Unparallel's stiffest downturned shoe, built for precision on all angles. The unlined synthetic upper provides a snug, secure fit without stretch. 4.2 mm RH rubber sole delivers exceptional edging on small footholds, while the extended toe rand rubber enhances toe-hooking friction. Highly tensioned heel with slingshot randing locks the foot in place for powerful heel hooks. A favourite among climbers transitioning from Five Ten Hiangles.
