Katana Lace (2023)

$65.70 $219.00

The Katana Lace, 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.
