The price is a deal-breaker for me, they're around 200 bucks....
We know the channel gets sponsored by unparallelel but i find this review quite accurate.
I come from the normal flagships, also using 3 evolv models and have been using the pros for 3 weeks.
Big difference other than the major improvement in the heel is the break in time. Quite fast. Also not so much pain like the normal ones gave me in the beginning.
I don't know if its due to usage but the old ones feel way softer / i can trust them more for slippery slabs than the pros.
Flohe was using the soup up till recently that he changed to the pros. He did also change shies to softer during a slab boulder in a recent comp. Tomoa also used other shoes in a recent slab. In short: slabs seem to be the weaker point of the pros.
Compared to my evolvs (shaman, zenist, phantom), i find the flagship (pro and non pro) a better all rounder shoe.
Did you find the phantom put pressure on heel and pinky toes when breaking in? I can wear them for a few minutes (LV version) and dont need a plastic bag or anything but the heel pressure is insane
@@JD7046.No issues in terms of comfort with the phantoms. They are my least favorite as I do indoors bouldering mostly and I find them too stiff/ without any specialization i could use them. I am thus using them for outdoors bouldering only which is something I consider changing as well. My least favorite/ used shoe so far. I hope you find yours more useful to your needs despite the pain.
Is there any chance you guys could do some more reviews of the Ocun shoe line up. Maybe start with the new Ocun Iris?
We'll add it to the list
Its fucking crazy how the rand goes over the sole. Good to see at 00:03
Never had this on a Italien shoe
They're nice shoes but I don't like the price at all. 200€ is way too much. In my opinion many shoes offer the same performance for 100-140€.
The 3.0mm rubber doesn't last that long. Again that's fine and other shoes don't last longer but they cost half the price... Personally I wont buy another pair, but I guess price doesn't matter if you're sponsored^^
Can recommend the ocun fury, iris and bullit they have great price performance, depending on your size you can get them for 90-110€
@@patburnsredsince the UK left EU I would have to pay 19% import sales tax + a customs tax on the item and I'm right back at 200^^
Totally get where you're coming from about the price and the rubber durability. and you're right, the 3.0mm rubber wears out quicker than having 3.5mm like on the original Flagship, but it does give great sensitivity, which some climbers love. Plus in my experience that RS rubber actually takes a while to wear out
At least mention you're getting sponsored.. Nobody likes a dishonest reviewer.
honestly one of the best shoes I have ever tried, so sad I beat them up to the point of having holes in them. Absolutely worth it.
Time to try the Pro?
Recently got a pair of Unparallel UpMoccs, really enjoying them. Quite a bit cheaper than bigger brands, break in period has been really quick.
Guess it depends where you are, in Europe you can get la Sportiva and scarpa cheaper even also this prices are insane high nowadays.
Love the Friday gear show! Have you had a chance to try them outdoors? How did they perform on long routes?
I mean they are bouldering outdoors in the video 😁
I thought the Unpararell TN Pro (yellow black) was Tomoa's shoe?
yes that one literally has his name, however this is made for a different purpose and he helped out the team to develop it
These epic tv reviews don't get any better, watch ukc shoe reviews by Rob greenwood, that's how you do a shoe review
I think having more review channels is a good thing regardless of quality. There are so many shoes out there you can’t rely on a single channel to cover everything, especially when Rob is climbing in a single shoe for a whole month it creates insane backlog and delay.
@mikej243 I agree, different shoes feel different to different people, however it does need a good deal of use to form a thorough review covering the good the bad and the ugly
Ukc just think everything Scarpa make is great though.
How to they size compared to Souped UP ? It's the only shoes I can wear, I've tried arouns 50 models so far with different sizes. I love the Unparallel rubber but the Flagship just doesn't work for me, toebox is way too narrow and heel baggy as fuck
Hey! I sized them the same as my Souped Up, so my street shoe size. The shoe feels very different compared to the Souped up tho, and it sounds like you found what works for you!
honestly this just feels like a long ad and not a true review
