Andrea Boldrini Pantera Light
Andrea Boldrini
The Pantera Light is a medium-soft, moderately downturned slipper shoe from Andrea Boldrini for bouldering and sport climbing. Andrea Boldrini lists it as medium-width with a medium heel.
A light, stripped-down microfiber slipper for bouldering, built on Andrea Boldrini's more aggressive PG+ last with a moderate downturn for precision and toe power on overhangs. A 4.5 mm Formula Enduro half-sole and moderate flex keep it sensitive and wrapping, while the unlined microfiber upper makes it fully vegan and resoleable. Handmade in France.
