Why We Like The La Sportiva Kubo Climbing Shoe
From weekends spent at the crag to extended climbs requiring multiple pitches, the La Sportiva Kubo is our climbing shoe. Featuring a moderate profile with asymmetrical curvature, the Kubo excels on the wall or the gym. The 4mm Vibram XS Edge outsole throws down tons of grip and features a top-of-toe rubber patch for better hooking and jamming. This shoe features an unlined interior, a padded and cotton-lined tongue, and two heel-pull tabs for comfort and convenience. The shoe is finished off with a dual hook-and-loop closure and an abrasion-resistant microfiber and leather upper.

My Second Pair
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
- Size Bought:
- EU 43
The Kubo is a great shoe for indoor bouldering. I wore my first pair out over a span of three years, and after some brief research decided to get another. These are comfortable, semi-relaxed, and smear well.
