Product Reviews

Rated 4 out of 5 by Carissa LynN from Forms to foot, comfortable for a climbing shoes [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These definitely have a heck of a break in period if you size them for performance/to account for maximum stretch, but once they soften up and form to the foot they are pretty comfortable (for a climbing shoe). The edges on this shoe are superb, and I find myself being able to stick on smaller holds much easier than with something more neutral. I can heel hook with ease and comfort in these shoes. Not the most aggressive shoe, but definitely a step up from a neutral shoe and something that can be used in multiple areas (bouldering/overhung routes/slab routes), which is nice for the price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by happyclimber from New favorite shoe [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had heard many great things about the Miura's and was due for new climbing shoes, so I decided to give them a try. I LOVE them. They are surprisingly comfy for such an aggressive shoe, and they fit like a glove. I find myself trusting my feet way more in these than my previous shoe (Scarpa Vapor V's) and they have made me a more confident climber outside.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Gena from good short-term shoes.....but that's it [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these shoes just under eight months ago in the fall. It took about two months to fully break them in. They are currently trashed. After the break-in period, I enjoyed crushing some routes that involved smearing, tiny pockets, and slab. I felt more confident in my footwork. But the shoes began falling apart within the first five months. Visible wear on the straps with eventual pieces of strap breaking off, signs of wear on the buckles, stretching around the ankles, and the toes are completely blown out. I have also developed large callouses/corns on my big toes from wearing these shoes. These are the sixth pairs of shoes I've owned.....and they have had the shortest lifespan. In the end, I would say these shoes are definitely not worth the price. I was expecting more. It's disappointing because they are super fun to climb in, but their short-term lifespan is just silly. I'm not sure it's even worth it to resole them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Climber82 from I'm a fan [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes were to replace my Cobras which are at least 7 years old. I wear a 8.5 women's and the 38.5 are perfect for my everyday climbing shoe - I could probably go smaller for a more performance fit. After the initial break-in period, I find these shoes quite comfortable, they do a good job on tiny foot chips, and I use them primarily in the gym since it's not outside climbing weather yet but I imagine they will shine on real rock!

Rated 5 out of 5 by rockclimbing9890 from Excellent [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My partner requested these shoes as a gift to improve her climbing (her previous shoes were worn and less of a "performance" shoe), and she said that the soles on these feel much more secure on the climbing holds. She said after even just one climbing session the Miura shoes felt more "broken in" and conforming to her foot, and she is hopeful these will make it easier to "level up" in grades at the gym.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Michelle from My new favorite shoe! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've worn Miura lace-ups for years and thought they were the best. When the redesigned lace-ups didn't fit the same, I decided to try the VS. I usually don't have much luck with velcro, but these shoes are amazing. The edging is just like my old lace-ups, but they fit so much better. Sport climbing is a dream in them. I am a 7.5 in women's street shoes and got a size 38.5. Perfect fit.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rainkrw from Great performance! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used the muira vs in the past but a slightly more aggressive design. comparatively the muira rubber has better grip and I like the slightly aggressive design. Before getting the vs style I tried the lace ups, but they really dug into the back of my heel. Only lasted a couple of months before ordering the vs’s in the same size and the comfort level is like night and day.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Angela from Excellent for a few months [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Developed a hole in one toe within 5 months of climbing in these shoes. Other Sportiva shoes I've owned have had a MUCH longer lifespan. These shoes also gave me a painful bone spur/bunion (the "Miura bump") on my big toe... However, I love(d) climbing in them and felt more confident in my footwork wearing these. Just bummed they weren't more durable considering the price.

NOTES and FIT INFO
La Sportiva footwear is built and offered on European half sizes, which are smaller increments than US half sizes. This gives them four extra sizes per size run, and ultimately gives you a better fit.

As a general rule soft shoes like climbing shoes require a tighter fit, or about two to three sizes smaller than your street shoe size.

La Sportiva recommends you fit your trad climbing shoes one to two sizes under your street shoe size.

La Sportiva offers a lot of lasts, and each offers a different fit and feel. Remember to factor in potential stretching.

Unlined slip-lasted shoes tend to stretch a bit more than lined shoes, or about one full size.

Lined shoes stretch about a half size.

LA SPORTIVA CLIMBING SHOE FIT SYSTEMS
PERFORMANCE FIT - Offers a high performance fit and a downturned last.
