When you look at the Women's Five Ten Blackwing, think Dragon with a Velcro closure. The padded tongue has a super-soft, fleecy microfiber lining. It wicks sweat and gives the top of your foot support and comfort, no matter the angle. The Blackwing fits like a glove, but slides on easily. The team shoe heel cup is extra snug and the Mystique outsole is specifically designed for ultimate friction on overhanging rock. The Blackwing is Five Ten's high performance competition shoe specifically designed for women.
Rock/Creek, Five Ten and Triple Crown Bouldering Series partner together to offer a special deal on the premire of the new Blackwing.

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
