Wrapped in sticky Vibram XS Grip rubber and drastically down-turned, the women's Solution sports a molded 3D heel cup and the patented P3 Power Platform which retains the downturned shape of the shoe until you finally burn through the rubber (which takes awhile, as well). This creates a shoe that hooks, grabs, edges, and smears on any feature you can find, with power and precision that revolutionized climbing shoes. The women's model fits slightly narrower and lower volume feet.

The Lock Harness System surrounds your foot and unifies it with the upper for a perfect fit. The highly adjustable Fast Lacing System lets you tailor the quick closing hook and loop closure for a highly personalized fit, while the sock-like tongue is super stretchy and feels comfortable next-to-skin.

All said and done, this shoe will let you climb harder. It isn't a fluke that the Solution has dominated the climbing market for over a decade. If you're looking for something to tackle cutting-edge boulder problems and wildly overhung sport routes, you'll love this legendary shoe.
