Product description

Indoor climbing shoes for beginners

The Tarantulace from La Sportiva are the ideal indoor climbing shoes for beginners. They get you used to the climbing walls with their light pre-tensioning, while having enough grip for the vertical due to their FriXion Black 4 mm sole. Thanks to their sweat-wicking tongue, the climbing shoes offer you a pleasant wearing comfort. Another practical feature includes the lacing that allows you to adjust the fit to your liking. Thanks to their leather upper, the Tarantulace are tough and durable - plus, you can have them resoled if necessary.

The advantages at a glance:

  • Ideal for beginners
  • Slight pre-tensioning and sufficient grip for vertical walls
  • Moisture-wicking tongue offers greater comfort
  • Tough, durable and can be resoled

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.
