Otaki, in Japanese Samurai slang, refers to the oldest single-wire sword: extremely sharp and precise, even on small targets. This concept is perfectly applicable to climbing. Otaki is a precise, supportive, and structured climbing shoe, ideal for sport climbing, multi-pitch, and trad climbing, thanks to features that meet the demands of modern climbers. The new construction method combines the snug, all-around fit of a slipper with the precision and volume adjustment of a hook-and-loop closure system. This design ensures maximum sensitivity and precision, even in torsion, as the shoe perfectly follows the climber’s movements, eliminating empty spaces and rigid areas. The innovative S-Heel™ maintains perfect torsional stability, enhancing performance and adaptability during heel hooks, especially when bouldering.

I love them. Climbing shoes are very personal to the footshape. Though, I love that they have two velcros. They have some additional rubber for toe hooks, but it is not a full rubber "coat". I think that makes the shoe more comfy (especially when you buy them in a small size and your toe joint presses against the shoe). It is a great allrounder, I think.

I wanted a more technical shoe for harder routes. These are perfect. A great fit, wide fitting as I wanted but really precise on small holds.

This patented construction system leaves the arched shape of the climbing shoe unaltered, without compromising original performance and push-power, even after years of hard use.
XS Edge: Developed for maximum support, XS Edge allows you to focus your weight on the tiniest of holds. Thanks to improved plastic deformation resistance, XS Edge keeps its shape through hours of repeated abuse, whether in hot or cold weather. Suggested use: in climbing conditions where secure edging is paramount. Disciplines: lead climbing, bouldering, outdoor and indoor climbing, micro holds and extreme edging. Optimal balance of performance and durability. www.vibram.com
