The Tenaya Tarifa is a versatile climbing shoe that offers comfort and performance, with a radical down turn that can perform in any situation.
Offering a real versatile performance in extreme situations, the Tenaya Tarifa has an ability to stick to seemingly ‘impossible’ holds, that borders on the supernatural! Utilising the RB RangeX system, a technology developed by Tenaya to make climbing feel both easier and more intuitive, the Tarifa offers superlative responsiveness in all kinds of demanding situations.
Not too rigid, not too soft, the Tarifa has been designed to provide optimal performance across a wide range of extreme climbing situations: from one-move boulder problems to long, sustained stamina-fests: from the steepest, most powerful overhangs to the thinnest of face climbs: from the tiniest edge to the vaguest smear.
You’ll be amazed how such a radically down-curved shoe can feel so comfortable, more so than many conventionally shaped rock shoes. The answer lies in how the Tarifa works in perfect harmony with the natural biomechanics of your feet, meaning the only thing you have to think about is the next move.

Climbing shoes are always dependent on your feet type of course but for me these fit pretty well and are comfortable after one climbing session. I climb up to V5-V6 and I’m confident with these on my feet when I’m trying a tricky problem. The laces give you the option to be more precise with the fit and they work just as well outdoors on rock as they do at the bouldering wall. Very similar to the Tarifa in fit but have slightly more rigidity to them. For reference I’m a street size 8.5 and I bought a size 7. I reckon if I really wanted to I could squeeze into a 6.5 if I were doing harder climbs!
Love these shoes. They offer amazing comfort alongside brilliant performance, both indoors and on rock. They fit my relatively narrow feet perfectly. This is my third pair in a row, over about four years of regular use. Highly recommended.

I have long narrow feet and went one size down according to the rock and run shoe chart and the fit is ideal tight at first but it has settled to the right size nicely.
The shoe is an aggressive shoe but not excessively so. for me it is a good all-rounder boulder shoe that edges fantastically, has good support but still gives plenty of feedback from the rock. great on my local polished limestone crags.
Really nice pair of shoes, fit really well and have improved my climbing by making my feet more accurate. Love the lace system you can get the right tightness you need.
