- : LA SPORTIVA
The La Sportiva Katana is the dual-strap climbing shoe that has proven itself for over 20 years as one of the most versatile and effective options on the market. Its flat last with a pointed toe, now featuring the P3® system, delivers comfort, sensitivity and precision for every type of climbing, from mountain routes to the gym.
Lasting precision with the P3® system
The patented P3® system is a randing system that starts under the toe and wraps around the whole foot, maintaining the shoe's shape and performance even after prolonged use.
LaspoFlex midsole and Vibram® XS Edge™ outsole
The full-length 1.1 mm LaspoFlex midsole, combined with the 4 mm Vibram® XS Edge™ outsole, delivers maximum support on edges and small holds while holding its shape through extended use.
Double facing strap closure
The dual velcro straps, pulling in opposite directions, allow quick and precise volume adjustment, while the updated medial fastening structure optimises insole support and the tongue ensures a secure midfoot fit.
