Katana Climbing Shoes

<p>The ever-popular Katana climbing shoes have long been La Sportiva's flagship for the ideal all-rounder climbing shoe - and the new edition with a new design is no exception! Less aggressive than its more streamlined sibling, the Katana offers excellent requirements for versatile climbers who like to tackle a wide variety of rock forms or for extensive multi-pitch routes that require a comfortable yet stable shoe. <p>With a low preload and moderate downturn, it generates plenty of surface area on friction climbs, but at the same time offers the necessary stability on smaller ledges. On long climbing days, the wide toe box ensures comfortable wear, reduced pressure points and less risk of blisters. The 4 mm Vibram&reg; XS Grip2 sole promises long-lasting grip with plenty of feel for a clean approach.</p> <p <p>The Katana climbing shoe is rounded off with the double Velcro fastening system, which makes taking on and off much easier.</p> <p>Weight: 490 g (pair, size 42)</p>
