Boreal Joker Lace

Size: UK 5

The Boreal Joker Lace is a mega comfortable yet technical, lace-up climbing shoe aimed at beginner/intermediate climbers.

Featuring extensive use of recycled materials, but still offering the same level of comfort the Boreal Joker Lace is the perfect first shoe for beginners. Designed to be worn all day long, this sustainable shoe has a super-comfortable semi-asymmetric last with a slim fitting heel and low tension rand, and an upper of high quality split leather and synthetic recycled microfibre with a PU Air Net lining for exceptional comfort and breathability. There is a newly developed, specially shaped heel cavity filled with shock absorbing EVA for improved under foot cushioning, and the rubber used provides the ideal blend of edging support and long-lasting friction. The heel of the Joker lace is made from recycled rubber, while the toe is the specially formulated Zenith Quattro compound. 

With the option of fitting the shoe the same as your street shoe size to wear all day, or down sizing for increased precision, the joker really is comfort and performance in one package. Making it suitable for both newcomers looking for a comfortable first pair, and more experienced climbers looking for a long route shoe.

Comfortable

2nd pair of these as the 1st were also comfortable. They’re less down turned and stiff than a lot of other shoes. The edge is fine when new but being softer your foot rolls more readily compared to more technical (uncomfortable) shoes. I’m fine with that. I can leave them on between climbs while at a crag for up to 6 hours or so.
