ACOPA
Acopa was founded by Dario Piana and Ernesto Vasquez in 1997 in the Mexican climbing town of Guadalajara. The Acopa design team includes the legendary American climber John Bachar....and if you haven't heard of him - just take a look through our DVD section !
USA magazine "Rock and Ice": "all Acopa shoes are shod with a natural rubber made from the bark of the guayule (pronnounced wy-oo-lee), a milkweed like plant indigenous to the tough deserts of Mexico. To the touch, the guayule rubber feels reassuringly tacky."

The Chameleon is Acopa's most popular model for a good reason. Its aggressive but comfortable shape and sensitive midsole make it the logical choice for any climbing situation.

The Chameleon may look simple on the outside, but it is designed to handle every type of foot technique you can throw at it, from heel hooks and heel-toes to toe jams and micro-edging, it won’t let you down.

A good all-around shoe can handle the thinnest edges and all types of cracks while never leaving your feet hanging

The basic concept of this shoe is that it should be super comfortable while being able to handle all types of climbing equally well – slabby edgework, all types of cracks, long routes and boulder problems. It should be as comfortable for the beginning climber as it is for the expert without loss of performance. The Aztec achieves all these goals while using classic elements such as unlined first class split hide leather uppers and top quality polymer midsole materials in combination with our unmatched last shaping experience and methods. A lot more goes into this shoe than first meets the eye as you will discover when you try out a pair on your feet.- and more importantly on the rock!

Taking the best selling selling Mad Rock shoe, the Phoenix, and designing it around a women's foot may seem like a simple task. Unfortunately it took a few years of careful planning and permeations. Finally its ready. The Banshee has an excellent comfortable fit but don't let the comfort fool you as she will perform well too. Slightly narrow in the heel, a higher arch and narrower toe box make this "the shoe" to get. Another climbing shoe first from Mad Rock: tattooed leather with a special pattern found on ancient artifacts thought to bring good fortune and massive friction. (OK, just kidding but it looks really cool!)

The Asylum fits a variety of feet and laces down into the toe for maximum adjustment. You can keep your fleet in top form because the Asylum is not only easy to resole and rerand, it is also washable.
