Product description
A specialist for multi-pitch climbing
An expert for crack climbing and multi-pitch routes: the TC Pro climbing shoes from La Sportiva! The comfortable, protective shoes have a higher cut and padded ankles. They pay homage to the most iconic ascents of El Capitan in Yosemite: "Freerider" and "The Dawn Wall". These routes appear in the form of a line on the top part of the uppers, which are made of eco-leather with metal-free tanning.
Comfortable feet
Even after hours of climbing, the TC Pro still provides maximum comfort thanks to its soft lining at the ankle and the particularly breathable material at the toes. These allow you to fully concentrate on your difficult climbing moves.
A good last and materials
You’ll enjoy crack climbing with the TC Pro, because its high-cut and padding will protect your ankles against crags. The extra high and wide rubber edge on the sole enhances friction and durability. Plus, it has reinforcements on the inside and a special lacing system at the toes to prevent the laces from rubbing against the rock.
The P3 System from La Sportiva also makes the TC Pro’s sole at the toes more dimensionally stable. The TC Pro is therefore great for small and sharp holds. Their Vibram XS Edge compound sole reduces deformation and makes them more stiff, so you can retain power in your feet.
A great fit and technical features: the TC Pro climbing shoes from La Sportiva are ideal for alpinists, trad climbers and big wall climbers!

Does new version stretch and how does it relate to other La sportivas?? Is it slightly bigger sizing wise or similar fit
Hi Luke,
The upper of these will stretch overtime but I would be careful of downsizing too much. A half size down from your normal size should be fine. The only way to know for sure though will be to try on and it might be an idea to order a couple of pairs to try on at home and return those that do not fit for a refund..
Compared to other La Sportiva shoes I would say these are not to far away from the fit of the Mythos or Finale.
