Tenaya Arai Climbing Shoes - Comfortable Dual-Velcro All-Rounder

The Tenaya Arai is a comfortable, slightly downturned climbing shoe for climbers ready to move on from rental shoes. It feels good from the first session, yet gives developing climbers real precision on small edges, rounded holds and cracks.

Two hook-and-loop straps spread tension evenly across a range of foot shapes, a padded bellows tongue keeps things comfortable, and the supportive multi-layer construction takes the strain out of long sessions. The slight downturn helps on smaller footholds without making the shoe specialised, and the 4mm rubber outsole is built for regular indoor and outdoor mileage. Choose the Arai when you want one shoe for everyday bouldering, sport climbing and training.
