The Scarpa Drago XT adds a more powerful option to the Drago family, with dual Velcro straps for a super secure fit and our SRT toe construction for sensitivity and precision. PCB Tension delivers flexible power, while the full coverage rubber heel is laser etched with texture to provide the ultimate heel hooking ability. Drago lovers will find similar fit characteristics, rigidity and the wrap-around SRT (Surround Rubber Tension) construction, that’s become an indispensable asset within the competition style climbing arena - giving a glove-like fit and extended high performance M50 rubber coverage, along with unrivalled feedback and reactivity during dynamic transitions. While one of the narrower models in the range, the toe box and heel offer a little more depth than that of its siblings. The twin-strap closure improves stretch control through the shoe’s lifespan and also gives the option to cinch in the midfoot; ideal for those who historically had a little too much volume in the standard or LV models. The IHC (Integrated Heel Construction) heel features an entirely new construction and rubber compound - the stickiest yet in the heel of a shoe! Through a painstaking prototype phase, numerous iterations came and went until we hit upon this unique combination of component shape and tensioning construction to create a heel with an unprecedented fit and no constructional gaps in the sticky rubber outer. Improved compression, stretch control and heel performance define this welcome addition to the Drago series. Features: Resoling Possible: Scarpa shoes and boots are built to the highest standard and should serve you for many years of use. However, just like tyres on a car, the rubber parts of a boot, shoe or rock shoe can wear down with use, and that’s why we offer a full re-sole service. Resoling not only extends the lifespan of your Scarpa footwear, it also returns it to it’s very best level of performance. PCB Tension System: Power Connection Band is a patent pending new way to construct performance rock shoes. It transfers power from the toe to the heel, allowing the shoes to fit like a sock with power and sensitivity. SRT - Surround Rubber: SRT is the core technology of the Soft Line models Chimera, Drago and Furia S. It is a layer of our ultra-soft M50 rubber that wraps around the forefoot and translates power directly to the tips of the toes. It also provides maximum friction and sensitivity for toe-hooking. Climbing with soft shoes improves one’s climbing style and naturally strengthens toe power. The total freedom of foot placement stimulates a faster and more dynamic movement on rock or plastic. M50 Rubber: M50 is Scarpa's softest rubber compound offering the best levels of adaptability to the natural curves of the foot and toes. This morphing rubber compound gives a Shore A rating of 50, making it perfect for use in their SRT system, toe patches and strategic positioning around the shoe upper.
