Pies de gato La Sportiva Solution - amarillo/blanco Talla: 44_5

Engineered with the P3® Permanent Power Platform, the La Sportiva Solution delivers relentless downturned power that keeps its aggressive shape for the life of the shoe. Paired with a 3.5 mm Vibram® XS Grip2 sole, this bouldering and sport climbing specialist bites into micro-edges and smears with confidence on steep terrain.

Overview

The Solution is a high-performance climbing shoe built for steep, technical routes and bouldering problems. Its highly asymmetrical, aggressive downturn positions the foot for maximum power on overhangs, while the Lock Harness System® secures the heel and midfoot for precise edging. A suede leather and microfiber upper offers durability and comfort, and the Pacific toe lining with Lycra tongue manages moisture during long sessions. The molded 3D heel cup enhances heel hooking sensitivity and security, and the Hytrel anatomical support of the metatarsal arch combined with the P3® platform maintains tension and shape over time. Resoleable and crafted with a low-to-medium volume fit, the Solution is a trusted tool for climbers pushing their limits.
