La Sportiva Otaki Kiipeilykengät Miehet, sininen/oranssi

Otaki in Japanese Samurai slang is the oldest single wire sword: extremely sharp and precise also on small targets. A concept perfectly applicable to climbing: Otaki is a precise, supportive and structured climbing shoe, ideal for climbing in crags, on walls and boulders thanks to features that meet the requirements of todays modern climbers. The new construction method combines the advantages of the all round snug fit of a slipper to the precision and volume regulation of a Velcro closure shoe. This solution guarantees maximum sensitivity and precision even in torsion: the shoe perfectly follows the movements of the climber eliminating empty volumes and rigid zones. The Innovative S-Heel allows to maintain perfect torsion stability accentuating performance and adaptability in heel hooks when bouldering.

P3 Permanent Power Platform
This patented system leaves the arched shape of the climbing shoe unaltered, without compromising original performance and push-power, even after years of hard use.

Vibram XS Edge
Developed to provide maximum edging support, the VIBRAM XS Edge compound delivers excellent pure grip while adding improved firmness for the most challenging edging moves. Thanks to an improved resistance to plastic distortion, it keeps its shape even after hours of use, maintains consistent feel in both hot and cold temperatures, and is formulated for improved durability.
