Comfortable from the word go, the Tenaya Iati features a Draxtor lacing system and SXR Dynamics dual Velcro closure system to ensure a tight and comfortable fit. This very technical, semi-stiff and extremely versatile shoe is ideal for anyone wanting to push their grades.
This is one of the more aggressive shoes in Tenaya's range, it's perfect for the high performance climber and works well for hard boulders, as well as longer sport routes. Designed for maximum efficiency the Iati climbing shoes give you more resources and more precision in every movement.
Constructed using a combination of leather and microfiber the Iati features all the good points of its predecessor, the Oasi but enhances these to an even greater degree. Awarded ‘Editor’s Choice’ (as was the Oasi) the Iati features a more curved form and is supremely capable on routes and boulder problems, be they vertical or overhanging. Even before you start climbing you’ll realize that these shoes are something special - their asymmetric shape and curved form immediately give you the sensation of total control and performance.
Recommended Use: Sport climbing on rock of all angles, from powerfully overhanging routes to technical walls and delicate friction slabs.
Features:
Aggressively downturned toe-box giving superb precision in innumerable situations.
Curved and structured form allowing greater transmission of force on overhanging routes.
Includes RBRX technology enabling superior fit and control together with the intimate feel and responsiveness necessary for minimal edging or friction holds.
Microfibre and leather upper and advanced construction techniques eliminate unwanted movement and keep you in total control.
Easier and more accurate: Like other models in the Aerial Plus Line, the Iati features a slightly downturned toe box in relation to the rest of the sole, resulting in a moderate curve, which makes foot placements easier and more effective on any kind of foothold.
Performance Aerial Plus Line: To achieve a greater ability to adapt to the different forms of the rock and a better response to the infinite positions of the foot, Iati incorporates RBRX, a technology developed by Tenaya compatible with SXR Dynamics, which has allowed us to further improve the adjustment in movement and achieve a wider range of response giving you greater connection with the rock.
