The women's version of the Boreal Beta climbing shoe, like the men's, is aimed at indoor climbing, multi-pitch and or long days in your shoes, just lower in volume and slightly less stiff to accomodate for women being lighter, in general. The Beta women's is built on a comfortable symmetric and mildly downturned last with a medium tension low volume heel so they are really comfortable, yet still having a technical fit, making them perfect for beginners or advanced climbers looking for a training shoe that is less expensive than your project shoes. The upper is constructed from a knitted synthetic fabric, which moulds to the foot and is highly breathable. The shoe is unlined but will stretch very little, and has two velcro straps to lock it in place and rip off quickly if you are in a rush. The rubber is sticky, durable Zenith Quattro™ for excellent friction that is the same as Boreal uses on it's performance climbing shoes. The forefoot and midsole is medium stiff giving the shoe good edging support and contact on volumes and slabs. Features include Boreal's integrated rand system, a one piece sole that gives zero chance of delaminating and an EVA shock absorbing insert in the heel to protect you from bruises when jumping down from boulders.**Details**- BOREAL® Zenith Quattro™ outsole. 4-4.5mm thickness depending on size - Integrated rand system - Boreal Cushioned Heel System (CHS) - Upper: Synthetic knitted textile material for optimal breathability - Unlined - Quick and easy double strap closure system - Slip-Lasted - Anti-deformation midsole Boreal Beta - Women's
