The Boreal Beta features a symmetric and very mildly downturned last shape with a medium tension, low volume heel. This helps introduce a more technical fit, and allows more advanced techniques using the heel to be used.
The upper is constructed from a highly breathable knitted synthetic textile, providing low stretch and great next–to-skin feel. A medium stiffness midsole paired with the sticky and durable Zenith Quattro™ rubber provides the ideal blend of edging support and long-lasting friction. The Beta is a highly versatile shoe which could be sized for comfort on multi-pitch or all day climbing, or sized tightly for higher performance and training.
The large levels of comfort and support keep your feet from tiring out which allows you to climb for much longer. This means whether you're a beginner to intermediate climber that is not used to wearing climbing shoes for long periods, or a high level climber looking to keep the aggressive shoes in the bag for the projects, these shoes will serve you very well.
