BLACK DIAMOND Mens Momentum Rock Climbing Shoes

Whether you’re tackling a run-out granite slab or sending laps on the iconic splitters at Indian Creek, the Aspect is a precision-engineered trad climbing machine. Crafted with premium European leather, the Aspect perfectly balances comfort and performance through innovative design elements that set it apart.

Once you lace up, you’ll notice the leather upper subtly covering the laces on the outside of the foot—specifically designed to protect against abrasive jamming. The tongue is made with Engineered Knit Technology, offering enhanced breathability and comfort. This knit extends to the shoe’s exterior just beneath the rand line, providing additional padded protection during foot jams.

The lateral stabilizer rands enhance precision by preventing your foot from rolling under pressure on the edges. What truly sets the Aspect apart is its unique rubber: molded rather than cut from a single sheet, inspired by the forging process of our carabiners. This engineering solution optimizes rubber and rand consistency, weight, and comfort.

With a medium-flex midsole, the Aspect delivers both support and comfort—perfect for those trad lines you’re eyeing next. Make sure the Aspect is part of your rack for your next adventure.
