The Piton is comfortable and extremely durable,designed for all-day trad routes and big walls. The Piton features new Stealth® ONYXX rubber for amazing friction and long wear. The fit of this shoe is excellent. A new rand pattern and new rand rubber allow for a high-performance, slender tow with no pain.
