Product description

Proven climbing shoes for beginners

The Women's Tarantula from La Sportiva are versatile climbing shoes, especially for beginners. Those who have just discovered climbing and bouldering do not need super-aggressive shoes, but rather shoes that forgive technical mistakes and support your feet in building up climbing strength. And the Women's Tarantula climbing shoes achieve all of that flawlessly. They are extremely tough and designed to support your foot muscles. They are most suitable for sport climbing in the hall, but you will also have a lot of fun with them while bouldering indoors.

Construction

Unlike many other entry-level models, the Women's Tarantula are a touch more aggressively designed. They boast slight asymmetry and light pre-tensioning. So if your abilities progress quickly, you can also tackle the odd more difficult project with these shoes as well. Perfect for those who mean business! On the other hand, the special FriXion Black rubber sole is relatively stiff in order to relieve your feet when climbing on the vertical.

Fit

These shoes feature a fit that is best suited to those with medium width feet. The shape of your foot is less important with these shoes. Whether you have Greek, Roman or Egyptian-shaped feet, these shoes should fit you well in the correct size.

The women's model differs slightly from the men's model in shape, but the main difference lies in the lower structural hardness. Thinner materials are used for this model, which allows the shoes to deform and adapt better to footholds despite the wearer's lower weight.

Conclusion

The Women's Tarantula are perfect for anyone who wants to start climbing. They are specially designed for feet that are not yet used to climbing on the vertical and therefore need some support. At the same time, they are so comfortable that you can even wear them during longer training sessions.

The advantages at a glance:

Women's climbing shoes for beginners
Ideal for sport climbing in the hall
Good support
Slightly more aggressive than comparable models
For medium width feet

Great for beginner , not technical

I used tarantula for 11 month, indoor and boulder, outdoor multipitch. I would reccomend to buy at least half a size smaller, since it is getting wider.
The shoe is a comfortable type.
