In 2007, it was the radically down-turned Solution to win and in the Climbing 2008 shoe review the much-anticipated Miura VS was honored with the Editor’s Choice award.&lt;br /&gt;The Miura VS defines the new wave of climbing shoe technology. It is an easy to use Velcro shoe with incredible edge control through its slingshot rand and power hinge system. In addition, it offers high pocket climbing performance and is equipped with Sticky Vibram XS Grip Rubber.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the editors at Climbing magazine, “The Miura VS was recognized for its high-end performance on a wide variety of terrain. The Velcro version shares the same asymmetrical, down-turned last and pointed toe as the classic Miura, creating a shoe equally fluent on thin faces and wicked overhangs. The Miura VS has a lined upper part but no lining underfoot, which allowed for a sensitive feel with only moderate stretch (about a half-size). Testers commented on the stickiness of the Vibrum XS Grip rubber. Ideal uses: moderate-to-hard face climbing; edging Bottom Line: Extremely high-performing and all around shoe.”&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23247793-3465671075839197805?l=sportivamedia.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sportivamedia.blogspot.com/feeds/3465671075839197805/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23247793&amp;postID=3465671075839197805' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23247793/posts/default/3465671075839197805'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23247793/posts/default/3465671075839197805'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sportivamedia.blogspot.com/2008/05/muira-vs-wins-climbings-editors-choice.html' title='Muira VS Wins &lt;i&gt;Climbing&apos;s&lt;/i&gt; Editor&apos;s Choice Award'/><author><name>Verde PR</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ptUp-7gB0gA/TKDdaSnWWaI/AAAAAAAACmI/lUeQoZ81CsM/S220/verdelogo.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptUp-7gB0gA/SDbgQHgGICI/AAAAAAAAAFI/0msO5mq7Sy4/s72-c/miura_vs.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23247793.post-229009069662273608</id><published>2008-05-20T11:29:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-20T11:34:40.120-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Men's Journal Gears Up with the Olympus Mons Evo Boot</title><content type='html'>&lt;i&gt;Men's Journal&lt;/i&gt; gives the Sportiva Olympus Mons Evo Boot a geared up review.

This year, La Sportiva will continue their role as a key sponsor of Blue Ridge Outdoors’ Blue Ridge Cup, a trail running race series that covers the full spectrum of competition, from 5K sprints to 24-hour relays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The Blue Ridge Cup is not only the largest race series in the Southeast, it is one of the largest in the country.  Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine does a great job of promoting the sport and providing opportunities for all kinds of runners, in all kinds of terrain," said La Sportiva team captain Buzz Burrell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With a race calendar spanning from March to December, The Blue Ridge Cup Race Series is designed to operate a little like a Choose Your Own Adventure book. Each event in the Blue Ridge Cup has been assigned a specific point value according to distance. In general, the more exhausted you feel when you cross that finish line, the more points you've probably earned for the effort; the more miles you conquer throughout the season, the more points you'll squirrel away for the series.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last year both the male and female winners of the Blue Ridge Cup trail competition were members of Team La Sportiva – Jason Bryant and Amber Moran. Both of these Mountain Runners will be back, gunning for a repeat in the winners’ circle of the Blue Ridge Cup this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/23247793-4641540507478037710?l=sportivamedia.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sportivamedia.blogspot.com/feeds/4641540507478037710/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=23247793&amp;postID=4641540507478037710' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23247793/posts/default/4641540507478037710'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23247793/posts/default/4641540507478037710'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sportivamedia.blogspot.com/2008/04/la-sportiva-becomes-key-sponsor-of-blue.html' title='La Sportiva Becomes Key Sponsor of Blue Ridge Outdoors’ Blue Ridge Cup'/><author><name>Verde PR</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ptUp-7gB0gA/TKDdaSnWWaI/AAAAAAAACmI/lUeQoZ81CsM/S220/verdelogo.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23247793.post-5082650867217619856</id><published>2008-04-09T09:26:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-09T09:27:49.768-07:00</updated><title type='text'>BackpackGearTest Posts Three Reviews of the Halite GTX</title><content type='html'>Three separate reviews of the Halite GTX from different testers were posted to the &lt;i&gt;Backpackgeartest.org&lt;/i&gt; website.
