La Sportiva Katana - '24

The Katana is a dual strap, flat lasted climbing shoe that has proven to be a versatile and effective shoe over the past 20 years. For 2024, we see the inclusion of the trusted P3™ patented system, which now helps the Katana maintain its midsole shape further into the shoe's lifespan. Retaining the original combination of a pointed toe and flat lasted sole, the Katana continues to provides comfort, sensitivity and precision for any type of climbing.

FEATURES:

• Double facing strap for fast and accurate volume adjustment
• Medial structure of upper fastening system updated to optimize insole support 
• Tongue designed to facilitate a secure midfoot fit 
• Exceptional precision on micro footholds
• P3™ System to maintain the shape and the performance of the shoe, even after prolonged use
• New heel construction for better precision of the heel hooks
