CHS: Comfort Heel System
Cushioned heel for superior comfort when walking and for day long use.
Joker Plus Velcro 2016
Description
The Boreal Joker Plus takes the supreme comfort of our Joker Plus Lace, and adds the convenience of a strap closure. Great performance and slipper-like fit make Joker Plus the ideal training partner.
The Joker Plus features a super-comfortable semi-assymetric last and fast and simple strap closure. A high-quality split leather upper is combined with the PU Air Net™ padded lining for superior comfort. The Heel Fit System™ keeps the heel in place and provides additional padding around the ankle. The low tension IRS™ (Integrated Rand System) heel is a one-piece heel unit which securely holds the heel without any pressure points.
An EVA anti-shock layer under the heel gives extra cushioning. The medium stiffness midsole combines with the sticky and durable FS Quattro™ rubber for the ideal blend of edging support and long-lasting friction. Joker Plus is ideal for comfortable all-day climbing. Longer routes in the mountains, full days at the crag and extended training sessions; all the pleasure without the pain.

Boreal’s latest model in its popular Joker series has a flat, symmetric last designed for all-day wear. The leather upper, synthetic mesh lining, and generous padding throughout make this the most comfortable shoe in the review. It sports the same 4.5mm FS-Quattro rubber that’s on Boreal’s high-performance shoes. One tester called these “unusually sensitive” for an all-day model. The toe is semi-stiff and slightly pointed for accuracy on edges and pockets, yet it’s soft enough to grab on slight overhangs. Soft padding surrounds the Achilles, and a thin EVA heel wedge absorbs shock on descents. The Joker Plus sports a high rubber rand, and the heel is rubber-coated for solid hooking. Two Velcro straps regulate the fit; a lace-up model is also available.
