Think Dragon with a Velcro® closure when you think of the women's Five Ten Blackwing. Five Ten's top competitive climbers swear by the Blackwing’s precision and power. Yet you don’t have to be racking up 5.14s to appreciate the Blackwing’s exquisite blend of support and comfort. The padded tongue has a super-soft, fleecy microfiber lining that wicks sweat preventing hot spots. The gently downturned outsole helps you pull into the rock, like a monkey uses its feet. The Blackwing has a glove-like fit with easy entry.

Comments about Five Ten Blackwing Climbing Shoes (Women's):
I generally prefer climbing shoes with laces since you can adjust the fit more precisely. However, for bouldering, velcro is just so much more convenient. The Blackwing gives you Dragon performance with the ease of Velcro. I still like the Dragons better since I prefer the more adjustable fit, but when I'm bouldering and taking the shoes on and off more frequently, the Blackwing is the way to go.

Comments about Five Ten Blackwing Climbing Shoes (Women's):
These shoes are amazing. I have really narrow feet and a very shallow heel. I've worn the Miuras (M and F, both laced and velcro), Testarossas, Teams, and now these, and I have to say the only shoes that come even slightly close to the Blackwings are the Teams. The fit on the Lady Blackwings are an absolute dream...imagine Sportiva fit with 5.10 performance. :) There are no pockets of air anywhere, nor are there hotspots. The heel fits better (more snug) than the Teams and the toe rubber is slightly less stiff and more sensitive than the Teams. Also, the fleece lining inside is SO. COMFORTABLE. Love these.
Great for overhangs, heel/toe hooking is incredible, sensitive enough to send hard slabs...seriously the perfect shoe.
For sizing, I wear:
Miura/Tesstarosa: 39
5.10 Teams: 8
5.10 Lady Blackwing: 8.5
