BLACK DIAMOND Mens Momentum Rock Climbing Shoes

Whether you’re teching up a challenging granite slab or cranking out laps on the iconic splitters of Indian Creek, the Aspect is a climbing machine engineered for trad. Crafted with premium European leather, the Aspect seamlessly blends comfort and performance through innovative design features that set it apart.

Lacing up, you’ll notice the leather upper gently wraps over the laces on the outside of the foot — a design specifically made for extra protection during abrasive jams. The tongue is constructed with our Engineered Knit Technology, enhancing breathability and comfort, while the knit extends along the exterior to just under the rand, offering additional padding and protection for foot jams.

Precision is key, and the lateral stabilizer rands ensure your foot stays firm, preventing rolling when pressure is applied to the edges. The Aspect’s durable rubber is uniquely molded, drawing inspiration from the forging process of carabiners, as opposed to being cut from a single sheet. This innovative approach optimizes rubber and rand consistency, comfort, and weight.

With a medium-flex midsole, the Aspect delivers the perfect balance of support and comfort. Next time you’re eyeing that trad route, make sure the Aspects are part of your gear lineup.
