When there's one way to send and precision footwork is paramount, we pull on La Sportiva's Skwama Climbing Shoe. The soft construction keeps us tuned in to the wall, confirming we're in the exact spot on the micro foot that we need to be to stick, while the aggressive profile helps drive all our power through the big toe to ensure we don't blow. Immune to temp shifts, this shoe won't bag out on hot days with the P3 rand retaining the fit and won't lose grip in the shade with the Vibram XS Grip2 rubber compound retaining its friction in the cold.
