Product description
Comfortable climbing shoes for beginners
Have you just started climbing and are looking for a pair of shoes in which you can spend your whole day on the wall? Then the Alpha from Boreal may be the perfect choice! These climbing shoes feature a microfibre upper, which feels particularly cosy and pleasant to wear against your skin. Meanwhile, the CHS padding on the heel also makes the journeys between climbs extremely comfortable and cushioned.
In addition, the shoe's semi-symmetrical lasts combine comfort with a strong hold on the wall. The Zenith Quattro 2.0 sole equips the Alpha with a particularly hard-wearing and high-traction rubber compound. Last but not least, these climbing shoes from Boreal can be worn in your normal street shoe size and are sure to provide you with long-lasting climbing fun.
