La Sportiva - Skwama Lite - Black/Yellow - Climbing Shoes

• Best for:
  • Bouldering
  • Sport climbing
  • Indoor climbing

Why we love it

The Skwama Lite is designed for climbers levelling up their technical game, equally at home in the gym and on real rock. The FriXion® Black sole is soft and malleable, maximising spreadability and surface contact on volumes and slopers where you need rubber to conform rather than resist. The 1.1 mm full-length LaSpoFlex midsole with P3 System™ maintains shape and torsional stability over time without dampening sensitivity

Features

• FriXion® Black: La Sportiva's friction-specialist rubber compound – soft and malleable, optimised for outstanding spreadability, sensitivity, and grip on modern volumes, slopers, and vertical terrain. Particularly effective for smearing and precise footwork where maximum surface contact matters.
• P3 System™ – Permanent Power Platform: Patented full-length midsole construction that preserves the shoe's shape and torsional stability over time – maintaining performance and pre-tensioning throughout the shoe's lifespan.
• LaSpoFlex 1.1 mm Midsole: Full-length insert providing metatarsal support and torsional rigidity across the entire foot – balancing sensitivity with enough structure for longer, more demanding sessions.
• SkinLike™ Microbase insole: Three-layer antimicrobial microfibre construction keeping the foot comfortable, dry, and fresh across extended sessions.
• Integrated toe rubber patch: Rubber coverage built into the toe edge for reliable grip on toe hooks indoors and outdoors.
• Fully vegan: No animal-derived materials in upper, lining, or insole.
• Can be resoled: Bring your shoes to our shop and we will take care of the rest.
