La Sportiva - Scarpetta (arrampicata) - Skwama Black/Yellow per Uomo in Pelle - Taglia 45 - Nero

it works very well on overhangs, slabs, walls, diedre, cracks. it works both as a soft and as a hard shoe, due to P3 and hard front part. Not very good on supertiny footholds on a wall where you would need a stiffer shoe... Very comfortable, used it a lot in also in technical multipitch routes. Buy it >3.5 sizes down your running shoe.

Paradoxically, these shoes are both soft and precise; undoubtedly owing to the concave forefoot pad and the unique aperture in the middle thereof. This means you get the sensitivity you want, to "feel" the feature; but if you need an edge for something small, there's enough to get you through to the next level of your Project. These badboys are enjoying something of a renaissance in 2026, with the 10Th Anniversary Model being dropped to much fanfare. If you have good footwork, like to Boulder and want a shoe that can handle anything you try, these Skwamas are worthy of your consideration. As for durability, DO be careful how you deploy the heel straps, because if you're too rough on them, the can/will fail, since they are not reinforced in order to be soft.

My favorite climbing shoes. I’m buying a second pair. Comfortable and moderately soft. In my opinion, ideal for recreational bouldering. Excellent quality.

Great shoe. I have a wider foot and feel the shoe conforms well.

Vegan Skwama didn't stretch as much as the original, good all rounder as you know. But the same issues with ripped stitches at the back of the heel...
