La Sportiva Miura VS Climbing Shoe - Men's

Why We Like The La Sportiva Miura VS Climbing Shoe

With a revamped heel and closure system, this iteration of the La Sportiva Miura VS Climbing Shoe brings more performance than ever before. This aggressive sender now features a narrower heel for precision hooks on micro holds, and a PU overlay on the upper and lower straps to boost durability when strapping in tight or hooking a toe. The stiff, full-length sole is still wrapped with Vibram XS Edge rubber for hardwearing grip and powerful edging performance.

These Miuras have been at the top of the La Sportiva line for something like 20 years, and were rated the Best Climbing Shoe of 2022. They edge like no other shoe, hold their downturn and shape across the life of the shoe and can tackle any route or project you can throw at them. They perform best when fitted TIGHTLY; but if you can endure a short-but-painful break-in period, your payoff is a pair of shoes that can really elevate your climbing prowess to the next level. I am recovering from ankle tendon surgery; so I got a pair a full size above my "send" size, 46 versus 45 FWIW. Once I am back in form, I'll downsize accordingly. Honestly, I have more confidence in these Miuras than any other shoe I have ever climbed in; and I recommend them to you without reservation. But get them TIGHT for max performance!
