Black Diamond Focus Climbing Shoes
Engineered to provide laser precision on routes and boulder problems that require absolute focus, this dual-Velcro, high-performance shoe has a slightly downturned last for edging prowess on steeper terrain.
Engineered Knit Upper
Constructed using an engineered knit upper, the Black Diamond Focus Climbing Shoes provide exceptional breathability and comfort. Designed to provide the right amount of stretch with the right amount of support, the knit technology sits comfortably against the skin and moves as you do. The fabric conforms to the shape of the foot to provide a perfect fit that minimises in shoe-slippage; because a precise fit is necessary when climbing. The knit upper also ensure exceptional breathability by allowing cool air to circulate within the shoe on hot and humid days. As well as this, the upper has also been constructed using a fine, durable leather which increases durability and support. The leather withstands wear and tear increasing the overall durability so you can have peace of mind on uneven rockfaces. Completing the upper are two velcro straps which pull in opposite directions to ensure added midfoot support.
Stabilizer Rands
The midsole features stabilizer rands on the medial and lateral sides to provide added increase precision by keeping your foot from rolling when pressure is applied to the outside or inside edges. The rand increases support and precision to reduce the risks of injury. As well as this a moderate, slightly down-turned last for technical climbing on vertical to gently-overhanging terrain.
Durable Rubber Outsole
Developed using a 4.3mm the Focus is built for durability and moulded for optimal consistency and performance. The stiff rubber is effective on terrain where small crevices and edging is a priority. The rigid nature of the outsole supports you during any climb by adapting to the ground below you and bearing your weight as you move from rock type to rock type. A high friction rubber has also been printed on the shoe to minimize bulk and maximize dexterity and grip for toe hooking. The outsole has been specially made to optimize the shoe's rubber and rands for weight, consistency and comfort.
