The Predator G2 Climbing Shoe by Evolv is new and improved with a more sensitive, better fitting, and breathable shoe. The Predator now has a deeper heel cup with more tension, while still offering you an aggressive turned down toe for steep climbing, great for the walls of Red River or the roofs of Priests Draw. Front point and pull on tiny footholds easily and toe in on pockets with surgical precision, and the upper does not stretch giving you a load of edging power for the faces of vertical faces.
The new Predator has a redesigned heel cup for a more secure fit giving you more power on heel hooks, while the TRAX rubber provides awesome friction on all types of rock.
- Asymmetrical downturned toe profile (KDA-1)
- Perforated elastic Synthratek synthetic upper
- Slip lasted construction
- Redesigned with a deeper heel cup for a more secure heel
- Super sensitive midsole for maximum feel and grab
- Perforated upper for breathability
- Ideal for sport, gym and bouldering

Comments about Evolv Predator Climbing Shoe + Free Chalk!:
Great shoe! I climb a lot and at 225 lbs it can be really difficult to stand on those small foot holds, but no problems here with this shoe. The unfortunate side is I got them in my regular shoe size. Where my big toe curled just barely too much, which is easy to put up with and break in, my two smaller toes on the end were crammed. I would suggest getting a half size bigger if you have a bigger foot like myself 11.5 if you have wide feet, I would suggest actual street shoe size if you have a narrow foot. Tis the story with most Evolv shoes. Again great product great buy and Rock Creek was amazing with following up and making sure I was happy with my product, and the best price around. How much more can a climber ask for! If you want to know I am currently climbing climbing V3/V4 boulder routes and 5.10c/d sport routes and the occasional 5.11.

I love this shoe. It's my first pair, but they are very aggressive. Great for any foot work. Took a while to break them in but now that they are they are very comfortable.

Comments about Evolv Predator Climbing Shoe + Free Chalk!:
Last winter I bouldered in this shoe for months -primarily in Bishop and in Joe's Valley. It works great on both types of stone. This shoe is very downturned and stiff- making it perfect for bouldering. I sized it quite tight, and it heel hooks like a champ, helped out by the generous rubber on the heel. I would definitely recommend this, specifically for bouldering and overhanging terrain.

I use this product for sport climbing and bouldering
This shoe has amazing power, and as I know the shoe has not yet entered Australia, so I may be the first of few to possess this new shoe, oh how I love you rock creek =)

Comments about Evolv Predator Climbing Shoe + Free Chalk!:
I got this shoe and noticed a change in my climbing immediately. I hopped on a V4 and got it where as with my old shoes I was struggling to get a V3. The toe is great for the hard to get tiny foot holds and it feels as if you are standing on a ledge. This is a great starter shoe to get into the more aggressive climbs and i am looking forward to taking this shoe to the bunkers at Fosters.

Comments about Evolv Predator Climbing Shoe + Free Chalk!:
i have heard about this shoe for a while and after numerous friends swearing by them i finally got some. WOW! for what they are designed for, overhanging climbs, they do great! really slender toe box with no deadspace really at all. i sized them down a 1/2 size from my street shoes and they were perfect.
