SHIBUYA’s tournament proven tab, better and more affordable than ever.

Flat Design

The SHIBUYA APEX Tab features a completely flat plate design by recessing the finger spacer and anchor pad screws into the plate. By allowing the thumb to tuck in beneath the anchor tab, this design enables the archer to achieve a connected anchoring surface with index finger, anchor pad, and thumb. Anchoring has never felt more natural!

TiltLok Finger Spacer

APEX features a redesigned Finger Spacer that allows for deeper hooking and offers a slimmer profile. The construction of the Finger Spacer prevents it from tilting, eliminating inconsistency resulting from the angle shifting during use. 

Internal Mount Anchor Pad

The SHIBUYA APEX Tab’s Anchor Pad is anchored in between the plate and leather. The archer is able to achieve a consistent anchoring surface to the fingers. The anchor pad naturally moves out of the way, enabling smoother anchoring than ever. The tab plate is covered by the anchor pad, eliminating the need to alter it in order to not protrude from the anchor pad.

Premium Customized Cordovan Leather

The Cordovan leather face used for the SHIBUYA APEX tab is supple, smooth, and has consistent thickness unrivaled on the market. This is not by coincidence – working with our supplier we had every step of the tanning process customized to produce the highest quality leather on the market.

APEX TAB

Product development

Since the introduction of the SHIBUYA Chung-Tae Kim Tab, it has been used to claim medals and personal best scores in a multitude of competition. But we realized we had to overcome two hurdles in order to make it more accessible to a wide variety of archers: a smaller, slimmer finger spacer that allows for a deeper hook, and a more competitive price point. By streamlining the tab’s construction, we were able to achieve both of these goals, making the brand-new SHIBUYA APEX tab an attractive new option for the market, featuring top-level features at an accessible price point!
