Rock Climbing Shoe

Scarpa Marathon

buy this gift now

The Scarpa Marathon rock climbing shoe is the perfect shoe for long mountain routes. We’re always looking for two things from our rock shoes: performance and comfort. Well, the Marathon delivers on both counts. An extremely comfy and forgiving shoe, the Marathon has a supportive arch and a relaxed heel. The integrated PU heel wedge supplies an amazing amount of comfort during belays and talus descents, while the polypropylene midsoles provide both support and flex. And while these shoes don’t take long to break in, they maintain their functional characteristics over time…even over multiple resoles.
