La Sportiva Men's Mantra Slip-On Rock Climbing Shoe

The Mantra, a performance-oriented slip-on rock climbing shoe, is one of the lightest and most sensitive options, making it ideal for competition climbing and advanced moves. Combining comfort and foot sensitivity, this shoe can excel in both indoor and outdoor settings.

Utilizing 3mm of Vibram XS Grip2 Rubber in a half-sole construction, the Mantra allows for maximum rock proximity, providing exceptional edging performance. La Sportiva's No-Edge toe rubber brings the foot closer to the rock, enhancing sensitivity and ensuring even wear.

The slingshot design heel features a narrower pattern, improving heel hooking capability. The pointed, large down-turned performance fit, with high asymmetry, delivers power and confident holds. This mid-volume shoe offers excellent sensitivity, ensuring top-level performance.

The slip-on slipper design incorporates a stretch elastic insert, conforming to the foot for a precise fit. Two heel pull-tabs facilitate easy on/off and allow for hooking to a carabiner. The all-synthetic upper is durable on various surfaces and does not stretch out with wear.

Boasting high coverage, ultra-grippy rubber at the toe, the Mantra is well-equipped for extreme toe hooks. This shoe's lineage can be traced back over 20 years, as the original Mantra, developed in 1999, was one of the lightest and most sensitive climbing shoes on the market, featuring the innovative No-Edge technology.

Now, in 2024, the third iteration of the Mantra is being reintroduced, incorporating the latest technological advancements. It remains one of the lightest and most sensitive shoes available, both within La Sportiva's line and the broader climbing shoe market.

Slipping into the Mantra, climbers can expect a performance and comfort combination that will become their new climbing mantra. The shoe's lightweight, sensitive nature, and versatility make it a top choice for competition climbers and advanced enthusiasts seeking a high-performance solution.
