A new model from the Tarantula climbing shoes range from Italian brand La Sportiva for those who want to start bouldering or are looking for a more comfortable climbing shoe. The main difference from its sisters is the addition of rubber on the top of the toe for easier hooking in overhangs and a modified heel for easier heeling. Good grip on the treads is provided by the Frixion Black outsole.
The slip-ons have a normal width and allow you to choose a more comfortable size. The fastening is on a reliable Velcro and the buckles are naturally oriented against each other to prevent the shoe from unintentionally loosening on the foot. If you are used to the Tarantula or Tarantulalace model when climbing and your climbing activities include bouldering, this model will be a good choice for you as well.

Footwear
The foot length corresponds to a deduction of approximately 2.5 mm on each side
For LA SPORTIVA footwear, we recommend ordering at least half a size larger than the size of the shoes you normally wear!
For example, a user who normally wears size 42 shoes will find that LA SPORTIVA size 43 fits well.
