Founded in 1975 in Villena, Spain, Boreal quickly earned global recognition for its high-performance outdoor footwear. The company revolutionised climbing in the early 1980s with the launch of Firé, the first rock shoe featuring sticky rubber, which transformed the sport by significantly improving grip and precision on rock surfaces. Boreal remains at the forefront of the industry thanks to continuous innovation and close collaboration with elite climbers. From cutting-edge materials like the FDS-3 outsole system to their renowned comfort and build quality, Boreal footwear is trusted by professionals and outdoor enthusiasts alike. All Boreal shoes are handmade in their dedicated factory in Villena, maintaining full control over quality and sustainability.
