Product Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Snug fit, great for classic foot shape I have both the 40.0 and 40.5 men sizes (street shoe size 42.5-43 or USM 9.5-10). The 40.5 gives a super snug but not painful fit right out the box and breaks in is fast (within a single session). The 40.0 I'd consider a performance fit as its just small enough where the edges scrape a bit against my ankle bone out the box but will eventually stretch enough after a few session. In a typically session, I'd still need loosen / take feet out within 30min due to big toe being a tad too crunched up on the 40.0, but not the 40.5. Heel is very good on both and I don't feel the risk of the shoe popping off on deep heel-hooks. Rubber is soft and sticky (grip 2) so will need to resole if smearing too much. The snug fit makes it suitable for both edging and smearing which I haven't found in other shoes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A tried and true show The Skwamas are an awesome, all-around shoe. They are comfy enough for longer pitches if you don’t size down too much, and are still aggressive enough for hard bouldering and edging. I have tried a lot of shoes over the years, but keep coming back to these.
Date published: 2023-07-13
Rated 5 out of 5 by from The right shoe for me They fit my wide and oddly shaped feet comfortably. However, I do have to size down on these about 2 full sizes from my street shoe size. I like the softness of them as well. I switch between these and the Miuras or Instinct VS depending on the boulder. But, Skwamas are my main go to pair.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome shoe I bought this about 6 months ago now, and I've got nothing but good things to say for them. They've been awesome for sending everything from slab to overhung, and seem to still be holding up just fine. The inside does bleed a bit yellow onto the feet, but its nothing permanent and doesn't bother me. The pointed toe has really helped with precise footwork, and is super fun for finding footholds on very sheer slab routes. Overall this has been an amazing shoe thus far, and would definitely be something i'd recommend

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A great all around shoe I got to climb in these for the last few months. It's amazing how fast I could break into them. While being very precise, they offer a lot of comfort. The pre-molded heel fits my foot perfectly and feels quite secure on agressive hooking. This shoe is a great all-around. It might not be best for the gym climbing on problems with lots of volume climbing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Shoe! I really like the Solution for outdoor routes and bouldering so I wanted to look for something that was similar enough but a little softer for indoor climbing. These broke in very quickly and have been amazing. They have become my recent crush. I wear a size 46 in street shoes and was able to go all the way down to a 43 in these. They might murder your Achilles for a few sessions but they will break in really nicely.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Awesome and comfortable shoes Love these shoes! They are great for indoor and outdoor climbing. I would give them 5 stars but the quality has been a little inconsistent over the several pairs that I have had.
Date published: 2022-12-28
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Well made but not a great fit for me I bought these as an indoor sport shoe. They are well made shoes and I wanted to like them. First thing to note was that they fit larger than any other LS styles I've owned (Katana Lace, Finale, Tarantulace) so, I'd size down at least another 1/2 size from what you usually climb in, maybe more. But also the heal cut into my achilles in a deal-breaker way. Never used them on the wall.

How does the fit/sizing of the Skwama compare to the Otaki? If a 41 Otaki fits me well, should I expect a 41 Skwama to fit also? I realize the Skwama is similarly wide, but softer and more aggressive. Just curious if I ought to size up/down.

Asked by: Ari in SLC
Hello there, thanks for your question. It looks like they are both built on the same last so the sizing is going to be the same. One thing to note is that the Otaki has an additional velcro closure over the toe. If you have a low volume foot the Skwama might feel a little sloppy since you can’t tighten down over the top of the foot. I hope this helps!

I wear a 8.5 street show, can you suggest sizing for these

Asked by: Rudy
Hiya Rudy, thanks for your question! Size 8.5 is equivalent to EU size 41, but since this is a climbing show, you might want to purchase a half size to 2 full sizes smaller. There is a link to a helpful size guide located in the lower right corner of the drop down size menu. Hope this helps!

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.
