Product Description

Adam Ondra's shoe of choice! The Miura is a design classic that has lasted the test of time and has almost come to define the perfromance all-rounder catagory.

Worn tight the Miura has a slightly downturned toe for performance on steep rock. Worn slacker many people find the Miura to be superbly comfortable and ideal for long mountain rock routes. The Miura has a reasonably stiff sole making it a great on edges. The pointed toe also makes it a great choice for pocketed limestone, although climbers with a wide forefoot may find it uncomfortable.

Overall if the fit is right then the Miura is an awesome shoe for those operating in the mid to (very) high grades, particularly on limestone, granite and volcanic rock.

Great on the grit!

Posted by Sam Wlliams on 26th Jul 2011

Literally just got back from a trip to Stanage with a new pair of these lovely shoes. I've spent the past two days wondering how I managed before with a less technical shoe. It is actually [almost] impossible to 'ping' off in these shoes, I mean I tried, I really did but because of the aggressive toe on these shoes and whatever Vibram have put in to their rubber it is really hard. If slabs are your thing then look no further.

Trying to give a balanced review, the only problem I suppose with these is there isn't much rubber on the top of the toes so if toe hooks are a big thing for you then I guess this isn't perfect. But that's really minor, all in all a fantastic shoe!
A Surprisingly Comfortable Performance Shoe

Posted by Al on 9th Sep 2010

I moved to Miuras after previously owning two pairs of 5.10 Anasazis (pink then white). What was immediatley noticable was that the shoe is far more comfortable. Now, the usual disclaimers apply and every pair of feet are different but I find that the toe-box of these shoes is very well shaped meaning that even when fitted tight for edging power, they aren't at all painful. The heel cup is also greatly superior with no dead-space at all. When broken in they even smear reasonably well though I feel that stealth does have the edge over vibram in that respect.

The upper is very well put together and has held up pretty nicely to the abuse given. The lacing system is nice too as it makes them a fair bit quicker to pop on and off. I also find that being leather they smell far less than any synthetic shoes I've owned.

The bottom line is that the Miuras are an excellent technical edging shoe and come higly recommended, they are my favourite non-downturned shoe.
ace while they lasted

Posted by robal on 9th Sep 2010

I have had 3 pairs of these, they are ace while the rubber is in good condition however i feel that they wear through very quickly. it would usually put me off but im yet to find another shoe that fits and performs so well for me!
