High-performance climbing shoes for challenging problems. The Zenist from Evolv are perfect for new-school bouldering. Wherever balance, coordination, and friction are crucial, these climbing shoes are just right. They are ideal for anyone who dares to tackle the most demanding bouldering problems in the gym. The fit is neither too loose nor too tight, making them perfect for average-sized feet.

Aggressive downturn and high sensitivity. The Zenist features a very aggressive downturn and moderate asymmetry. Additionally, they have a 3.5 mm thin, two-part sole construction that makes the shoe relatively soft and flexible. This makes them particularly well-suited for steep overhangs like training boards or for standing on friction, as is required in many modern bouldering problems. The moderate camber facilitates heel hooking, further enhancing the shoe's performance on overhangs.

For those looking to tackle the most spectacular problems in indoor bouldering, the Zenist is a perfect choice!

Performance Fit: If you prefer a snug fit and want your shoes to be more comfortable from the start, add half a size compared to your street shoe.
