Boreal - Beta Eco, MenThe Beta Eco has all the same functionality of the Beta, a fairly stiff and slightly downturned shoe aimed at begginers or for use as a training shoe, with a breathable knit mesh, and wider toe box for comfort. However, the Beta eco uses recycled mesh for the upper and ingeniously recycled rubber for all areas of the sole except the tip of the toe box and the heel, the areas that get the most wear.
