Stepping into a Momentum Lace may be your first step toward a lifetime of climbing. Built with a combination of recycled materials—a knit tongue, micro suede upper, and a remarkably sticky Black Label rubber sole, the Momentum Lace is comfortable, thoughtfully designed, and performs great out of the box.
Made with premium materials and engineered with performance climbing in mind, the shoe’s flat last makes it ideal for the nuanced footwork required on vertical terrain and slabs. That said, the Momentum Lace is versatile enough to be sized down for gym climbing and steeper climbing styles.
Sizing notes: The sizing of these climbing shoes is based on the actual dimensions of the last, unlike street shoes that often have space built in for comfort. Your size will be smaller than your street shoe size; snug- to tight-fitting climbing shoes will allow you to get the best connection between your feet and the rock.
We trust what we make because we use what we make. All Black Diamond products are covered by a two year warranty policy.
From clean climbing, to conservation, Black Diamond is committed to protecting the people and places we love.
