Men's La Sportiva Solution Comp Climbing Shoe

For over a decade, La Sportiva's Solution has been solving climbing's most complicated problems, and the Solution Comp Climbing Shoe showcases the first significant redesign since its inception. The most obvious update is the more rubber around the toe, but despite the extra rubber, the Solution Comp feels significantly softer and more sensitive than the original.

The Solution Comp retains the same aggressive profile, Vibram's XS Grip 2 rubber, and La Sportiva's original P3 Power Platform, but the enhanced softness and sensitivity ensure a greater performance for modern, competition climbing. The quick-pull lacing harness allows for precise regulation of inner volumes, wrapping the foot snugly for excellent support, fit, and comfort.

The Solution Comp has already earned the Editor's Choice award from Climbing Magazine, who noted that the gym-focused Solution Comp features a softer midsole, bigger scumming patch, and narrower heel than the original—and was a runaway hit with testers. It breaks in quicker than the OG model and performs better on volumes and smears.

Rock climbing shoes are designed to fit differently than other footwear, so it's essential to reference the La Sportiva size chart in the product images for more accurate sizing. The fit should be tight, but not painful, and without pressure points.

The Solution Comp Climbing Shoe's sole material is Rubber, and the outer material is also Rubber. The closure type is Hook & Loop. The CLASSIC, REDESIGNED approach of this product aims to CLIMB HIGHER by retaining the key features that made the original Solution a success, while incorporating improvements to enhance the performance for modern, competition climbing.

The FAST LACING SYSTEM allows for precise regulation of the inner volumes, ensuring a snug, supportive, and comfortable fit. The AWARD-WINNING recognition from Climbing Magazine further validates the Solution Comp's capabilities, highlighting its softer midsole, larger scumming patch, and narrower heel compared to the original model.

When purchasing rock climbing shoes, it's crucial to follow the TIPS FOR BUYING, as these specialized footwear have a different fit compared to regular footwear. Referencing the size chart and ensuring a tight but not painful fit, without pressure points, is essential for optimal performance and comfort on the climbing wall or in the gym.
