Indoor climbing shoe designed to adapt perfectly to the shapes of holds and volumes of indoor climbing. The Theory is an indoor climbing shoe that offers extreme sensitivity and high dynamics, allowing unique adaptability on the edges, making it ideal for indoor use. The development of the Theory is based on a study by La Sportiva's R&D department on the gripping behavior of gorillas and the sensitivity of cat paws, combined with insights into new indoor climbing routes characterized by wide volumes and dynamic movements. This shoe maximizes power and dexterity while maintaining sensitivity on all types of holds.

It features a new construction with exclusive D-Tech™ technology (Dynamic Technology), where the sole wraps around the sides of the shoe to eliminate lateral edges, ensuring a dynamic approach and adaptability to modern indoor holds. The Vibram® XS-Grip2 compound sole, with differentiated thicknesses on the toe, enhances grip on the edges, while the reduced volume heel allows for maximum precision on heel hooks. The rubber toe covers 90% of the front surface of the upper to support toe hooks while accommodating different foot types. The overall construction facilitates pressure application on modern indoor route settings and provides support during cross kicking due to its high adaptability. The upper Velcro fastening enables optimal tension regulation. Theory: climbing-species evolution!.
