"THE MERAK is a soft, sensitive all around shoe built on a relaxed straight last for those who's second toe stands proud. The power is right at the point combining the strength of both your biggest toes. Use them for all styles of climbing - they will perform admirably - short sport desperates or long torquing trad cracks. Super durable no-stretch Lorica toe, full lining, form fitted arch and perforated foam mesh air-flow tongue. Dual track control lacing."

"The newly designed Merak features synthetic Lorica in the toe, creating a power cylinder for the forefoot that retains its integrity even under the most extreme of edging conditions. This new modification effectively controls stretch, so the shoe always returns to its original shape, assuring you that the performance you receive out of the box will be the same months after the shoe is broken in. The centered last offers an alternative for climbers with a symmetrical or centered foot shape. A breathable mesh tongue helps keep your feet cool in warm conditions. This is a great shoe for technical climbing on small edges and pockets."
