PROFILE
The ATHENA was the first women specific velcro shoe in the world and perhaps the most technical climbing shoe designed for women or anyone with narrow, low-volume feet. The AST (Arch Support Technology) delivers the perfect fit for all arch types with a quick tightening of the velcro straps by eliminating dead space. The white uppers will keep you cool in the sun even when your adrenaline is rising as you send the crux. The ATHENA is the ultimate all-around bouldering, sport climbing and competition climbing for women.

REVIEWS
“Testers found that the Athena delivered a good balance between edging and smearing, thanks to its soft but supportive midsole … One fit adjustment that all testers appreciated was the upper strap’s ability to snug up the shoe against a variety of foot types, accommodating both the flat-footed and the super-arched.” Climbing Magazine Issue 232.

“The Athena is EVOLV’s woman-specific Velcro model, and it’s constructed with a wonderful low volume last and soft performance midsole. These features made the Athena one of the top woman-specific shoes in the review. Our narrow foot testers loved the fit, finish and performance of the Athena.” Gripped Magazine Volume7 Issue 3
