Great looking and functioning shoe
Straight out of the box impressed with the rare red/black colour scheme. Lots of people asking about them in the Gym!
Uncomfortable first climb as expected as sized down, but quickly stretched to fit and a good fit now.
Would recommend!

Very basic
Tarantula as expected is a beginner's shoe, very basic and comfortable. I'd definitely suggest it to people starting climbing but, given the La Sportiva price tag, there are definitely cheaper equivalents.

These are my first laced climbing shoes and they're a perfect fit. Can adjust the thigtness really easy without loss of grip. I use them only for trad climbing, but would recommend this to anyone within bouldering, trad, sports & indoor. Good price - quality for a shoe that's in between beginner & hard.
