La Sportiva Skwama Vegan climbing shoes - black/flash green size: 39_5

Aggressive bouldering and technical sport climbing demand a shoe that can grip the smallest edges and heel hook with confidence. The La Sportiva Skwama Vegan delivers exactly that, pairing a high-performance downturn with a synthetic, animal-free upper. This EU 39.5 model in black and flash green is built for climbers who want uncompromising precision on steep terrain without compromising their values.

Who is it for

Advanced and elite climbers focused on bouldering, indoor climbing, and overhanging sport routes. The Skwama Vegan suits those who need a sensitive yet powerful shoe for toe hooks, heel hooks, and micro-edges. Its unisex fit works for both men and women, and the vegan construction appeals to climbers avoiding leather.

Tips

For the best fit, consider sizing down from your street shoe size—many climbers go 1-2 EU sizes smaller for a performance fit. The synthetic upper will stretch minimally, so a snug initial fit is ideal. Pair with a chalk bag and brush for optimal grip on micro-edges.
