La Sportiva Tarantula - Women's

As far as comfortable and durable climbing shoes go, the La Sportiva Tarantula has quickly become a favourite for beginners and climbing veterans alike. Packed with features that assure its competence on small edges, and also provide comfort for long gym sessions or epic multi-pitch all-dayers, the La Sportiva Tarantula is a well-rounded all-rounder that lives up to its popularity and reputation.

The La Sporitva has a well earned reputation for being a comfortable, well rounded shoe that is perfect for beginners and veterans alike. This shoe is packed full of features you might expect to be locked away on the most high-performance shoes, but doesn't sacrifice it's comfort. 

The Tarantula has a stiff midsole that supports your feet, which is perfect for multipitches or beginners who haven't developed the required foot muscles for downturned or soft shoes. This is combined with the Tarantula's FriXion® Black 4mm rubber which is sticky enough to smear and hard enough for small edges on slabs/vert.

The upper is made of suede calfskin with a tubular construction, and sports velcro straps to help tighten up the closure, which lets you get the perfect fit while climbing. 

Why settle for a mediocre beginner shoe, when you can get one that has been designed with you in mind. Pick a pair that will build your confidence while climbing, and last you a long time - pick the tarantulas.
