After some use, the shoes adapt to the specific structure of a person's feet and become more comfortable and suitable for both stepping on edges and extremely small sloppy steps that require high friction and sole bending to hold on. The shoes are suitable for high-class climbing on slabs and vertical rock, but also do a great job for overhanging terrain and any other type of rock or indoor climbing. The Niad allow full use of the feet when climbing and maximum possible transfer of own weight onto the foot steps that climbing shoes can provide. Thus, a person can fully realize his or hers sports technique and be effective, saving the energy of the forearms.
This model should never be discontinued. It is a classic.
It should be mentioned that I used to wear a five-ten Anasazi size UK 8. After Adidas started making five-ten, I wear a Niad UK 9. That's the size of my Adidas running shoes.
