La Sportiva Tarantula Climbing Shoe

LA SPORTIVA TARANTULA CLIMBING SHOE

The Tarantula, with its focus on comfort, is easy to use and easy to get on and off in a flash. The unlined leather upper provides excellent moisture management and stretches enough to make them a joy to put on day after day. The forefoot shape is rounded and has a higher volume for the climber not looking to mangle their feet. Yet, the slight asymmetry is aggressive enough to perform on steeper routes and trickier moves. The highly adjustable losure system adapts to various foot types and shapes.
