La Sportiva Katana Women's Climbing Shoes - White/Storm Blue - Size 40 EU

The La Sportiva Katana is a high-performance climbing shoe designed for women, offering a perfect balance of precision, comfort, and versatility. Ideal for sport climbing, bouldering, multi-pitch, and gym use, these shoes feature a moderate asymmetry and downturn for excellent edging and smearing capabilities. The women's-specific last (PD 75) ensures a comfortable fit for medium to wide feet, while the P3 System maintains the shoe's shape over time.
