The Mandala from La Sportiva is part of the innovative No Edge family, designed for climbers seeking extreme precision and softness on difficult rock routes. The absence of a typical toe edge allows for more natural contact with the rock, making it easier to achieve precise foot placements on even the smallest footholds. This feature makes the Mandala an excellent choice for experienced climbers, particularly when tackling overhangs or challenging routes where footwork precision is key.

These shoes feature a suede and microfibre upper, which adapts perfectly to the contours of your feet, ensuring both comfort and freedom of movement. The Permanent Power Platform (P3 System) helps the shoe maintain its shape and pre-tensioning over time, even after extensive use. This system ensures that the shoes retain their performance, support, and precision, no matter how many routes you climb.

Thewide rubber coating on the toe and heel areas enhances hooking and popping, providing a secure hold for better stability. The shoe is finished off with a 3mm thick Vibram XS Grip 2 rubber sole, which offers exceptional grip, helping you stick to the rock even on challenging surfaces.

For climbers who demand precision, comfort, and durability on their toughest routes, the Mandala is a top-tier choice that combines La Sportivas cutting-edge technology with reliable, consistent performance.
