Educate your climbing performance with the all-new La Sportiva Genius: a climbing shoe with an IQ of 5.15. The Genius features La Sportivas innovative No-Edge technology, made popular in the acclaimed Futura, which allows for exceptional edging and sensitivity. The lack of an edge brings the foot closer to the rock, transfering energy more direct from the toes to tiny edges and distributing pressure effectively. The Genius also utilizes P3 technology to maintain power transfer from the heel to the toes and Vibram XS Grip2 to smear and stick to near-featureless rock. For a high-performance, aggressive, downturned climbing shoe, the Genius stands out for its amazing comfort. The secure heel, similar to the Testarossa, and asymmetric toebox, as well as a lace-up design for a snug, custom fit. The Genius is a paradigm shattering climbing shoe that has already been adopted by La Sportiva athletes like Joe Kinder, James Pearson and others. Unlock the enigma of the worlds hardest problems and climbs with the Genius.
