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.
