High-performance unisex climbing shoes featuring No-Edge® technology, the P3™ system and a 3 mm Vibram® XS Grip2 sole.
Product Description
La Sportiva Mandala Chalk – Unisex Climbing Shoes
The La Sportiva Mandala is a high-performance addition to the No-Edge® family, developed for modern climbers seeking maximum sensitivity, precision and speed of movement. Its construction minimises the thickness between the foot and the climbing surface, providing direct contact and accurate control on technical sequences, micro footholds and complex boulder problems.
No-Edge® technology removes the traditional sole edge, allowing the toe box to adapt to irregular foothold profiles. Pressure is distributed more evenly and a larger area of the shoe remains in contact with the climbing surface, improving sensitivity, grip and adaptability.
The wide area of high-grip rubber over the toe supports demanding toe hooks, while the precision heel provides stability and control during heel hooks. An anatomical Hytrel support beneath the metatarsal arch combines with the P3™ system to balance sensitivity and support while preserving the shoe’s downturned shape and pushing power over time.
