Made for climbers who want confident edging and all-day comfort. The SCARPA Blackbird brings a new approach to precision climbing with a carbon-reinforced Pebax® midsole that marries a rigid platform with a soft structure. The CEM 3D construction supports precise foot placement on small edges and micro-features while reducing foot fatigue, so you can stay on the wall longer without relying on an aggressively downsized shoe. A comfortable heel keeps heel hooks feeling solid, and Vibram® XS Grip2 rubber delivers the friction you need to trust your feet on everything from indoor problems to technical rock routes.
