Review on La Sportiva Skwama Mens Rock Climbing Shoes: Enhance Your Climbing Performance! by Adam Abner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great shoes for the price! Best suited for high-volume heels.

Great shoes! Super comfortable after a short break-in period. They are amazing on pipelines and hanging routes. The midsole is versatile. Soft enough for steep hanging routes/boulders and hard enough for vertical projects. The rubber is very sticky and soft, wears out relatively quickly around the toe of the shoe but never slips over the hits. My only criticism of them is that the healing shell is too big for my narrow foot/heel. I can feel/expect my heel to slide in and out of the shell a little at each heel hook. The shape/texture of the heel cup felt very secure on even the most superficial heel hooks. I can say if I had a bigger heel the mug would be awesome. All in all a great all round shoe for the price. I reduced my street shoes to a full size.
