\n

In this post I am going to be comparing my two favourite climbing shoes , Anasazi LV<\/a>‘s and the more recent Blackwing<\/a>‘s and eventually I will crown the winner!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Number one:<\/p>\n

Aasazi LV (Womens)<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These have been my shoe of choice for many years until only a few months ago when I decided to wear Blackwings for a change and I have yet to decide which I prefer.<\/p>\n

BENEFITS\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

-Very good on slabs, the rubber helps you smear up the wall and use small footholds without slipping.<\/p>\n

-Fit very well. These shoes are very comfortable and fit exactly on my feet so there is little discomfort.<\/p>\n

-Adapt to fit your feet after sustained periods of use so you can fit them a little small but they will eventually mould\u00a0around the shape of your foot.<\/p>\n

-These shoes are flat which means they aren’t very aggressive on your toes so comfier than the majority of downturned shoes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Overall these shoes are very versatile and have been my favourite for as long as I can remember!<\/p>\n

Number two :<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blackwing (Womens)<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(My tip – order a size bigger than you would wear on flat shoes e.g if you are a 4.5\u00a0normally, order\u00a05.5, I learnt the hard way!)<\/p>\n

BENEFITS<\/strong><\/p>\n

-Amazing precision, especially on roof or overhanging climbs<\/p>\n

-No aggressive heel like a lot of downturned shoes so pretty comfortable<\/p>\n

-Do not come off on heel hooks. \u00a0Some shoes start to slide off when you pull on heel hooks. (if you fit them too big they may slide a little)<\/p>\n

-Grippy rubber that does not slip easily on small or particularly flat ones.<\/p>\n

MY FAVOURITE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now that i\u00a0have compared them side by side I now have decided that my favourite shoe of all time is……. THE ANASAZI LV!! \u00a0After much consideration I realised that nothing can beat my original favourite. Maybe next time Blackwing!<\/p>\n
