The Method S is one of the newest additions to the Black Diamonds Climbing Shoe on the women's line. Designed to excel at Sport climbing from blocky limestone to slick Harrison sandstone the unit prioritizes forefoot comfort and has one of the shortest break periods of a shoe. Easy on the feet out of the box, it allows beginners to experts to experience all-day climbing comfort whilst maintaining a stiff edge for improved power.
Specifically designed for steep climbing, a downturned last design improves arch stability, however, it is not considered to be ultra-aggressive, and the result allows Method S to perform on a variety of angles. It is the one shoe for all types of climbs, reducing the volume in your gear closet. Inspired by the design of carabiners, the molded rubber is cut from multiple sheets which reduces waste, lowers weight, ensures consistency, and promotes comfort.
Upper construction consists of a stretch-resistant microfiber, that provides next-to-skin comfort, with a high-tension, engineered knit tongue constructed from a microsuede-lined woven textile. This highly breathable textile improves breathability and allows for ample mobility.
