Unparallel Vega Climbing Shoe
The UnParallel Vega has been designed by the creators of the Five Ten Jet 7 and offers the same all-round performance but with a slightly modified design and a new rubber compound called 'Real Supreme'. The Vega, similar to the UnParallel Regulus, has a downturned profile and low-asymmetry last. This shape provides precision on small footholds and overhanging climbs without sacrificing comfort. However, the Vega's midsole is medium-stiff and its Real Supreme rubber softer than the Regulus', which makes the Vega a much more sensitive and versatile climbing shoe. The Vega is an all-round shoe but undoubtedly excels on harder climbs where its downturn, sensitivity, and precision comes into its own.

Features

Real Supreme Rubber
Superior technical rubber compound designed for steep routes and holds, allowing climbers to 'grab' and pull in with their feet. With superior friction, it perfectly conforms to micro edges and crystals.
Summary
• V-shaped velcro closure system allows for a perfect fit, quick adjustments, and easy on/off performance
• Painted on rubber over the toe area gives added friction for toe hooks without sacrificing comfort in the toe box
• Lined synthetic upper will not stretch
I bought a pair of Vega one year ago and I've been used them as my project shoes for bouldering since then. Great for smearing and still good support for edging (at least for my level that is V5 in the gym). The grip is great and they are very comfy for their shape! Very recommended.
