Those with a sharp eye for tiny footholds can make good use of the La Sportiva Katana Lace. A rock climbing shoe that lends the ability to place toes onto small edges and hook into pockets thanks to its thin heel, downward turn, and asymmetrical shape. The men's version boasts a single, full-length outsole that allows for pushing effectively onto verticle and technical terrain. And despite the shape, they stay comfortable throughout the day. Climbers can expect all the friction and accuracy they need while twisting into thin cracks and scaling slabs while wearing the Katana.
