La Sportiva Solution

Wrapped in sticky Vibram® XS Grip2™ rubber and drastically down-turned, the Solution sports a molded 3D heel cup and the patented P3® Power Platform which retains the downturned shape of the shoe. This creates a shoe that hooks, grabs, edges and smears on any feature you can find. The Lock Harness System® surrounds your foot and unifies it with the upper for a perfect fit. The highly adjustable Fast Lacing System® lets you tailor the quick closing hook and loop closure for a highly personalized fit. All said and done, this shoe will let you climb harder.
