The extra thick FriXion® Black 4mm sole guarantees durability over time.

The sweat absorbing tongue designed for prolonged indoor use is made of two overlapping parts:

it facilitates the fit and avoids the formation of creases.

The quick strap closure contributes to the structure of the shoe.

Ideal for those who are just starting to climb.

The unlined leather upper provides a responsive feel, gradually molding to your foot for a personalized, sock-like fit over time. This adaptability enhances comfort and reduces hot spots, making it the ideal companion for long training days. The innovative tongue construction is specifically designed to manage moisture and improve breathability, a crucial feature for high-energy indoor climbing. Its overlapping two-part design not only makes slipping the shoes on effortless but also prevents uncomfortable bunching and creasing across the top of your foot.

Performance is anchored by the highly durable FriXion® Black 4mm rubber sole. This robust sole is engineered for longevity, standing up to the rigorous demands of frequent use on abrasive gym holds and rock faces. It provides a reliable balance of grip and support, giving you the confidence to trust your foot placements as you learn to move with precision and efficiency. Paired with a 1.8mm LaSpoFlex midsole, the Tarantula offers the right amount of torsional rigidity to support your foot on small edges without feeling overly stiff, promoting natural foot movement and strength development. The fast and effective hook-and-loop closure system allows for quick adjustments and makes taking the shoes on and off between climbs a breeze.

What our customers are saying about La Sportiva Tarantula climbing shoes

These climbing shoes offer excellent performance for beginners and intermediate climbers, praised for their comfort and good grip. The adjustable velcro closure ensures a secure fit, and the leather construction means they may widen slightly over time, so many recommend sizing down. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, these shoes provide a quality experience at a great value

Perfect beginner's shoes with an okay stiff sole but still room for the toes.

Great!

Facundo Javier

Versatility and quality

ALBERTO

These are ideal shoes for progressing. If you're looking for comfort on the climbing wall, these shoes are great because you don't have to take them off every time you try. They're also great on rock.

The best climbing shoes for quality and price

Diego

You won't find better quality/price ratio. I wear size 42 and I got the 41, although maybe next time I'll get half a size smaller.

Comfortable but big

2024/05/07

Jordi

The cat foot is comfortable, but they are half a size larger than the other models of the sportiva. So if you have a 42 of the miura you must take a 41.5 of the tarantula

Very good value for money

2024/04/18

Vinz

Comfortable slippers, good grip, effective tightening. Take 1 size smaller or 1 1/2 size, I am a size 44.5 in city shoes and I took the slippers in 43.5

First pair

It is the improved version of the same model. The previous Tarantula I had didn't cover my instep, but this one did. He's a good cat.

Comfortable jacks and good rubber.

Meets the expectation

Tiago

I use them for indoor climbing, they are comfortable, I can last 2 hours without having to take them off, and they have good grip. They are good for beginners/medium. I wear size 41 and I bought these cat feet size 40, but I think I should have bought size 39.5.

La Sportiva Tarantula climbing shoes

2026/05/22

Tom, Hungary

Since they are very comfy and grippy, the Tarantula are ideal for beginners. If you don't want to take them off after every route you climbed, the Tarantula will be your best climbing mate - they are one of the bests. The heel-loops + the tongue-loop are very useful and ensure your fingers to hook well when you take them on and off. The velcro straps make your your life easy with giving your feet fine adjusment. In the streets I wear size 42 and I got the my Tarantula in 41 that gives me a great fit without any pain. Their quality/price ratio is awesome and they're also should be great on rock I guess. I am fully satisfied with the Tarantula, so they are highly recommended with 5*!

Product as described (not yet tested in use). Fast delivery.

Good for beginners

Gabriel

These are my second pair of climbing shoes, and I really like them. The Velcro adjustment is very practical and offers really good support. I bought a size 1.5 smaller than usual, and they fit just right, as they should. Maybe they could be a little tighter, but I wouldn't last even half an hour in them.
