Category: Climbing Shoes

The Katana Lace Women's, despite its downturn shape, is a comfortable all-day climbing workhorse that performs well on slabs and can easily twist into thin cracks but excels outside on steep single or multi-pitch routes. The slightly downturned toe and subtle asymmetry ensures you can hook into pockets or exploit the tiniest edges while providing unrivaled comfort for the level that it performs at. The Katana Lace is a veritable edging machine now available in Men’s and Women’s styles.

Eli J. ★★★★★

I was nervous about the downturn since I usually climb slab, but these somehow stay comfortable through a whole session. They also twist into thin cracks way better than I expected from a lace-up.

Evelyn ★★★★★

Wore these for a full day of slab climbing and my toes never screamed once, which I did not expect from a downturned shoe. The laces let me dial in the tension right where I need it for thin cracks.

John M. ★★★★★

The downturn had me worried they'd be painful, but I wore them through a whole session of steep overhangs and my toes were fine. They edge surprisingly well on small footholds for how comfortable they are.
