Smooth, fun and dynamic climbing has a new Mantra
Advertorial: Among La Sportiva's new products for SS2022 there's the release of the new Mantra: an ultra-lightweight climbing shoe designed for indoor surfaces, that's dedicated to medium and high level climbers looking for maximum grip and versatility on any type of terrain.
The upper liner is minimal and the thickness of the rubber edges is kept to a minimum in order to guarantee sensitivity and proximity to features and holds, while the internal volume of the shoe is designed to allow the toes to move easily, thus offering maximum grip.
Mantra combines the No-Edge construction with D-Techโข (Dynamic Technology): the sole wraps the shoe laterally for a total absence of side edges favouring dynamic support and spreadability on the most advanced indoor hold shapes and surfaces. In addition, the Vibram XS Grip2 compound provides maximum grip, offering all climbers excellent performance and a unique climbing experience.

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
โI stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโs World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders.
