FUGA 3.0 BOA

I bought this pair of shoes out of curiosity as I’ve never owned any pair of shoes with the BOA lacing system.
I ended up using these shoes daily, for walking, jogging, doing cardio training at the gym, hiking and even for going out with friends, as I like the clean classic style without too many colors and logos. These shoes are extremely comfortable and the BOA system makes them super quick to put on and off. The Vibram Megagrip sole is the best in the market and it’s very long-lasting. The whole shoe is actually very durable, after using them for about 7 months they are still in excellent condition. TOP quality.
I recommend this model and I will definitely purchase another pair or the next version of this model.

Unparalleled sense of detail!

Love love love everything I tried from Kailas: from the trail running FUGA shoes to the Nebula GoreTex jacket, the super lightweight running vest or even the climbing pants and shirts, Kailas products have replaced in my wardrobe all my previous products from similar European brands!

Kailas Women's 9A Classic Pant

I absolutely love these pants, they do everything you would expect a climbing pant to do and they do it well. I love that I can wear them even when it is super hot out since I can sweat in them and still feel cool. I hate climbing in shorts because I am forever scratching my legs up, so having these pants to wear in the summer is the best. I also love how vibrant the colour ended up being. I’m pretty small and until these pants I had yet to find climbing pants that actually fit me and so had to resort to yoga pants that would get shredded pretty quickly. These pants hold up against sharp rocks and are seem to be pretty stain resistant. Will definitely be buying more in different colours!

Fuga Air Trail Running Hydration Vest Pack 8L

I love this running vest very much as it comes with the special All-round Dial Fit (ADF) system. Just uplift/press the button to adjust the vest according to the need during running. Simple, easy, quick & precise!

The vest comes with 2 unit of 500ml water soft flasks. I love the BI-fix system that prevents water in the water flasks from sloshing when they are getting lesser. Furthermore, I can carry another water flask at the back compartment, if needed.

It has many compartments in different sizes to cater different need. Personally, I love:-
1) the chest pocket for my phone- easy fast access to my phone;
2) the pocket with zipper at the back- I could keep important things to prevent loss; and
3) the wind breaker pocket- easy fast access to my wind breaker during running even though at the back.

Highly recommended for trail running & short hiking.

The Kailas Fuga Pro 3 is just…

The Kailas Fuga Pro 3 is just remarkable. What i like most is the fitting that fit your legs well and provide enough room for your front toes. Not too much, Not too little.

Grip is excellent for mix trail but I will prefer Fuga EX Trail Running Shoes for more muddier terrain.
It is light yet durable.
Easy to clean.
The lacing system is good to use as well. Dont have to tie shoes anymore

Color are nice and cool!

Kailas Fuga EX trail running shoe

Kailas Fuga EX trail running shoe is the best trail running shoe that I have ever owned. It is super light, but still providing good support to the user.

While Fuga EX doesn't have the best grip comparing to some heavier shoes, that's okay. Every shoe is designed to serve different purpose. This shoe is tailored for fast trail running, so it is okay to trade off some grips for greater benefits, such as weight cut.

It also has some special features which I have never seen in any other running shoes, for example the locking system. At first I thought that the locking system is for aesthetic purposes only, but I was wrong. It helped me to look my foot in place and that prevented my toe from hitting the shoe cap, thus no more discomfort or black toe nail.

This shoe is a surprise to me. It is definitely my choice for trail run competitions.

Bought the 9a Classic climbing pants…

This is my experience. I Bought the 9a Classic climbing pants and i absolutely love it!

Unfortunately, when I decided to get another 2 pairs and made another purchase online for both XS sizes, I was told the sizes no longer available AFTER making the full payment via credit card.
They did not refund my money, and did not reply emails for the past 2 weeks. The support and customer service department did not reply any of the emails.
I WANT MY MONEY BACK!

Kailas 9a climbing pants

Kailas 9a climbing pants. I own several pairs which I use for sport climbing and bouldering. The Kailas pants are the only brand of climbing pants I prefer to wear. They don’t feel tight and there’s freedom of movement for your legs when climbing. My oldest pair of 9a is about 5yrs old and they don’t show any signs of wearing out. I like the big selection of colors and I will be getting more of them in the future.

Kailas Women's 9A Classic

Kailas 9A Climbing pants are my favorite pants for climbing. I have 2 pair. The colors are great and they wash up really well. They are the perfect weight for climbing in Tucson AZ, fall through late spring. I am 5'2" and weigh 125 pounds. I ordered a medium and they fit me well and are not tight. They are very stretchy and comfortable both to hike and climb in. I had a problem with a seam ripping and customer service has been very responsive. They got back to my email in just a few days. Please be sure you pay attention to the sizing chart, which is in cm's when deciding on a size for your pants. A small is not the same fit as a small in the US. The 9A classics seem to have a roomier fit so if you are curvy, they might be a better choice for you,

Kailas Fuga EX Shoes are great for technical trail, good for both short or long distance. Light weight but still give a good cushion. The AWS system keeps my foot in place avoid toe hurt when going downhills. For terrain gripping function, trust Kailas!

Kailas 9a Classic Climbing Pants

These pants are everything you could want in a pair of climbing pants. They have great range of motion with the gusseted crotch and plenty of freedom of movement within the pant leg. While expensive, once having tried them on, I can see that the costs went into the quality of the pants. The material is slightly heavier than a pair of Prana Zion's but this is not a bad thing. With Zion's, you can get some pilling with heavy use on kneebars. The slightly heftier material in the 9A gives these pants a more durable feel. The material feels more comfortable against the legs than the Zion's. For that matter, I have regularly worn scrubs for work and these pants are as comfortable, if not better, than the most comfortable scrubs I own. For breathability, the pants do not retain heat and you get plenty of air flow against the legs. These will not be a problem in direct sunlight or when out in the dead of summer. For these reasons alone, this is now my favorite pair of pants as comfort is a big plus for me and these are the most comfortable pair of pants I have ever owned. The colors and the fit are fantastic for a pair of sport pants. There are two side pockets with no back or cargo pocket. If you are someone in regular need of multiple pockets, you may desire for more. The two pockets are deep to the mid-upper thigh so they have plenty of room in them. The pocket material is one-side the pant material and another side an airy mesh material. This means you do not actually feel the pocket in the pants against your leg as it is very lightweight and low profile. There are loops on the right leg and on the back of the pants for attaching gear; the loop on the back is perfect for a chalk bag. There are also belt loops if you need them. There are also loops for rolling the pant leg up. These have a coin and loop system with the coin inside the pant leg passing through the loops on the outside of the pant. You can not feel the coin against the skin due to the material the coin is constructed of and the shape of the pant leg. The pants are cut to be thin but not tight against the thighs. The knee and lower leg have a slight taper moreso than a straight cut pant but not as aggressive as a slim cut pant. This means that I am comfortable wearing them around town as they look great while still retaining all the leg room that I will need outdoors. I am 6'3" ~180lbs. I have always worn 32x34 pants in a variety of brands and jeans. The XL is an exact fit for me.The waist is made of an elastic material that gives some variation in sizing however I do not suggest sizing down. While the elastic does have some give, it is more for comfort and variation in body types. If you are trying to have the pants stretch around your waist due to sizing down, this elastic will be extremely tight and uncomfortable. I picked my size based on multiple reviews and suggest anyone looking for a good fit to do the same. I highly recommend these pants for anyone looking for a pair of do-it-all pants that they can take on hikes, around town, and to the crag.
