Why We Like The Otaki Climbing Shoe

The Otaki Climbing Shoe is an updated version of La Sportiva's very versatile Katana, except with a downturn for a more aggressive performance on any route or problem, and it's among our favorites for precise performance.

P3 technology applies a Permanent Power Platform that ensures the Otaki's downturn stays downturned. The S-Heel construction optimizes heel hooking and gives a snug fit, while Vibram's XS Edge sole sharpens the sides for ideal edging, slicing, and dicing. La Sportiva styled the Otaki's upper with laser-cut leather and microfiber reinforcements to reduce stretch. The LaspoFlex midsole isn't too soft nor too stiff; you could say it's just right.

  • Climbing shoe shaped for aggressive precision
  • Same asymmetry as the Katana except more downturned
  • S-Heel construction maintains aggressive downturn for life
  • Leather upper with microfiber reinforcements and rubber toe
  • Vibram XS Edge is a harder rubber for greater edging grip

Note: La Sportiva shoes are built on European half sizes which are smaller increments than US half sizes. This gives us four extra sizes per size run which gives you a better fit!
