Published by Mountainblog on .

IGUANA SCARPAFor a real climber, there are no walls that cannot be climbed. It is this passion that gives life to urban climbing, a fresh and original alternative to more popular ascents on the mountains, that pulls the enthusiasts of this sport to take on the acrobatic challenges exploiting the urban buildings. Bridges, windowsills, balconies and any bulging architectural structure become the new handles to climb, creating brand new “urban vias” to be conquered.

For more than 80 years SCARPA® has produced the most performing shoes for outdoor fanatics, and it now presents Iguana, designed and developed for all those loving vertical challenges, both on the mountains and in the cities.

IGUANA: Beyond the parkour there is urban climbing: Iguana was born for this. Its upper is made of a unique piece of knitted stretch fabric. No seams for the maximum comfort, transpiration and lightness. The up-to-the-toe lacing system deriving from the climbing world guarantees a custom fit that respond the needs of modern urban climbers for their dynamic movements. The rubber toe cap is shaped to give maximum protection. The Reptilia MG outsole by Vibram® with Megagrip compound, ensures a perfect grip on every foothold. The medium-density EVA midsole has a soft EVA insert in the heel area for maximum cushioning. Iguana is the perfect shoe for all the people with a dynamic attitude: from parkour to slacklining.
