About the La Sportiva Mantra
Considered to be a sacred utterance, the Mantra name is highly appropriate for the newly designed climbing shoe from La Sportiva of the same name.
With a low cut slipper design the Mantra offer exceptional dexterity on the wall, providing uses with greater tactile feedback making the unit perfect for edging and smaller holds. The unit combines La Sportiva's highly regarded No-Edge® construction with D-Tech™ technology (Dynamic Technology) with the sole unit wrapping around the upper to seamlessly make lateral edges disappear. The advantage of a no edge slipper climbing show provides the unit with dynamic stepping adaptability making it perfect for the likes of technical indoor bouldering.
The upper is constructed from microfibre which is combined with suede and is of tubular construction providing users with exceptional snugness for the demands of such a technical shoe. A subtle fabric ensures that internal volume is maintained and allows toes to move comfortably both up and down, for maximum grip. Moderate pretension of the sole unit is facilitated by the renowned P3 system, a classic staple of La Sporitivas technical line of shoes and provides users with additional support when transitioning across slabs and up crimps.
A shoe designed to excel and not hinder, let this be the Mantra of your climb.
