Tenaya RA Climbing Shoe Orange, Mens 10.5/Womens 11.5

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I like the Ra for routes where edging and comfort both matter. It feels supportive on tiny footholds, but the shoe still flexes enough for smears. The toe rubber is great for hooking, and the overall fit stays consistent during long training sessions. It’s one of the easiest performance shoes to trust right out of the box.""We trust the Ra Climbing Shoe when a route demands steady balance, focused edging, and comfort that lasts the entire session. Tenaya developed this shoe to bring harmony to every movement, blending responsiveness with a supportive feel that keeps us confident on small footholds and gently overhanging terrain. Its moderate curve, precise fit, and streamlined construction help our feet stay relaxed while still driving power into each placement. Thoughtful design details elevate the Ra’s performance. A microfiber upper maintains shape while resisting unwanted stretch, and a TXT-treated lining wicks moisture to keep the interior stable. The integrated tongue makes the shoe easy to slip on and off between burns, while Vibram XS Grip rubber brings reliable traction to tiny edges, textured dimples, and friction sequences. With a 2D PLT 10 midsole and multi-layer insole creating a dependable edging platform, the Ra delivers a smooth, intuitive climbing experience for days when precision and comfort need to work as one."
