#HookedOnMyDragos | SCARPA Athlete Sam Elias (bookofsamuel) 

“The Drago XT is a work of art. It’s truly impressive when you learn about all the components of the shoe and how it’s assembled — leather and microfiber, a complicated midsole, 3 tension systems, 5 different rubbers. There’s so much thought, care and detail put into it — like EVERY SCARPA shoe.

But, what matters is how it fits YOUR foot and what YOU NEED it for. It’s not for everyone, or for everything. I use it mostly for gym climbing/training because of the fit, ease of use, precision, and most importantly the medium soft stiffness profile. I could see using it very well for certain outside bouldering and route climbing for sure.

For me and my feet, and primarily as a route climber, it’s the best Drago with 1) a slightly taller toe box but lower overall volume everywhere, especially the heel (which is so amazing) 2) a more precise fit and adjustability with double straps 3) more stiffness for precision and support on small footholds, and also support for circuits and route climbing, 4) Coolest look.

I find it’s the most comfortable and best performing Drago... but you should go try them and decide for yourself.”
