Stealth® originally set out to develop a rubber that would actually improve climbing by increasing the amount of body weight rubber could bear before its bond broke away from steep rock faces. After several years of research and experimentation, Stealth® rubber was born. Stealth's® unparalleled success in the climbing world made other athletes take note. The demand for other Stealth® sport applications was so high that the company realized it would have to return to the laboratory to develop additional sport-specific formulas. The development of new formulas involved years of field-testing, with some of the worlds' best athletes using these sport-specific compounds in applications from water and snow to rock and trail. Each of the rubbers in the Stealth® family is specially formulated to excel in specific conditions, but they all share Stealth's® unique blend of high friction and shock absorption.

• Stealth® provides a remarkable amount of shock absorption so it helps minimize foot and leg fatigue - a feature that is especially beneficial at the end of a long day of climbing, mountaineering, or backpacking with a heavy load.
• Five ingenious rubber compounds are engineered to provide optimal, activity-specific performance. Stealth® is your guarantee of exceptional performance on any angle terrain.
• AquaStealth® replaces and improves upon rubber and felt soles in fly-fishing. Stealth's high friction properties outperform other sole materials with significantly better traction on wet rock, slippery mud and moss, and on hidden algae-covered rocks. Stealth rubber also provides traction on land and in water, giving fishermen the freedom to wear the same pair of boots all day.
• The rubber provides the advantage of a quick-cleaning sole in which dirt easily washes away. This is especially important for the river's eco-system that suffers from fisherman's felt soles housing bacteria and spreading it from one stream to the next. The use of high friction rubber soles has revolutionized fishing boots, and is especially recognized and relied upon by fisherman.
