Product Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great intermediate climbing shoe! I purchased these after using the Scarpa Origin shoes as my beginner shoe for a few years. I was looking for a climbing shoe that was a bit more aggressive, had more rubber coverage, and wasn't too expensive. The Kubo met all of my expectations and more. They are super comfortable and I can feel they've greatly improved my climbing. I wear a 10.5 in street shoes and got a size 43 in the Kubos. It is tight but over time they have stretched a bit and are great.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Comfortable and Decent Price I bought this about a month ago and have had many sessions using them since. The shoe is super comfortable and broke in quick. They are a little bit slick when chalk gets on the sole and the heel does not feel the most secure during some heel hooks. Overall I have been very happy with the shoe.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great step up from Tarantula What a game changer stepping up from the Tarantula without going to a too aggressive shoe. Still comfortable with much more confidence in those small foot holds and heel hooks feels like cheating. v5/v7 here we come!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great beginner / intermediate shoe This is my first shoe that was a step up from the rental shoes. Big improvement over what I’m used to. I typically wear a size 12 street shoe and stuck with a size 12 climbing shoe. I like both types of shoes to be tight fitting. My feet are squeezing to fit these but they feel great on the wall. Heel cup is very curved compared to other brands I tried on - still on the fence about whether I like how aggressive the heel is as it puts a lot of pressure on the back of my ankle Though it’s been getting less noticeable as they break in. Recommended for the price!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great every day shoe Bought a month ago and have worn them to the bouldering gym 3x per week since. I bought a half size lower than my normal size and they fit snug but not painfully tight. I like that they have a little arch and the toe covering makes them decent enough for cave climbing just as much as slab. They are really comfy and I can wear them without any pain pretty much straight away. my main complaint is that the rubber is a bit slick and soft.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Versatile and comfortable shoe Very happy with these. Super flexible midsole and arch. Lots of grip and sensitivity in the toes and heels. I have high arches and have had trouble finding a good fit, but these have been perfect.
Date published: 2023-05-14
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great intermediate, all-round, and practice shoe The Kubos mean business. They’re not your high performant sending shoe, but aggressive enough to send hard boulders or routes. Even though I downsized by 2 sizes (from EU 45.5 down to 43.5), I can comfortably wear them throughout the session. They also don’t stretch too much, but enough to fit snug on your feet like a second skin. I definitely found my new favorite pair of allround climbing shoes!
Date published: 2022-09-14
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great step up I’ve used them once at a Boulder gym. Super impressed with this new pair of shoes, though my last pair was very well worn. Was looking for something for an intermediate climber and this seems like a great choice so far.

NOTES and FIT INFO
La Sportiva footwear is built and offered on European half sizes, which are smaller increments than US half sizes. This gives them four extra sizes per size run, and ultimately gives you a better fit.

As a general rule soft shoes like climbing shoes require a tighter fit, or about two to three sizes smaller than your street shoe size.

La Sportiva recommends you fit your trad climbing shoes one to two sizes under your street shoe size.

La Sportiva offers a lot of lasts, and each offers a different fit and feel. Remember to factor in potential stretching.

Unlined slip-lasted shoes tend to stretch a bit more than lined shoes, or about one full size.

Lined shoes stretch about a half size.


LA SPORTIVA CLIMBING SHOE FIT SYSTEMS
PERFORMANCE FIT - Offers a high performance fit and a downturned last.

TECH FIT - A more technical fit and a last with neutral profile.
