La Sportiva Python Purple/Lime Punch are the ultimate climbing shoes when it comes to indoor training, bouldering, and competitions.
With the exponential increase in the presence of volumes in our climbing gyms, there is a need for a soft shoe that is very sensitive on the edges and at the same time has an excellent heel and the ability to securely hook the toe.
La Sportiva has definitely improved this shoe in all these aspects: the heel is indeed covered with ultra-sticky rubber that allows for extreme heel hooking, the toe is also covered with ultra-sticky rubber but this time with three-dimensional designs increasing grip when we are hooking onto a volume.
As for the fit, it remains super snug thanks also to the heel which, combined with the midsole, allows for perfect wrapping of the arch, the most critical point to fill in climbing shoes.
The rubber compound is the softest one found in Vibram, the XS Grip 2.
