Miura VS Men
Description
For over two decades, the Miura VS has been a trusted shoe offering high-end edging and versatility in nearly all rock climbing scenarios. A hook-and-loop closure system combined with the one piece leather upper to allow sensitivity and confidence on micro edges and smears. A combination of a synthetically lined upper and unlined insole help to both control stretch and allow a customized fit. The Miura VS is built with a P3® platform for a consistent downturned toe box shape, while an updated outsole pattern improves heel hooking effectiveness.
• Combining updated aesthetics and heel construction for more precise heel hooks, the new Miura VS will still impress seasoned Miura VS die-hards
• Soft and breathable fabric tongue padding now manufactured from 100% recycled material
• Slingshot rand connected to the P3® System provides consistent edging power throughout the life of the shoe
• Triple hook-and-loop closure straps with injected PU artwork and updated design increases grip and durability
• User Profile: Climbers looking for a high performance shoe with amazing edging control. Ideal for precision pocket climbing, overhanging sport routes, bouldering and technical face climbing.

he Miura VS has been a much-loved favourite of many climbers for over 15 years, and the good news is that the update has not watered down what this shoe does best. It continues to provide out-of-the-box edging performance, which turns into all-round reliability as the shoe softens up. If you've worn the Miura VS for years, you'll no doubt be pleased. If you're someone who has grown up with the more recent trend of softer shoes the supportive Miura VS may be a shock to the system and take some adjustment, but the power of the Miura toe on small precise edges and the general midfoot support is not to be overlooked. Old duffers like me know a good thing when they see it - and thankfully so do La Sportiva.
The La Sportiva Miura VS belongs in the world of tough climbing, where it can use its diamond-hard edges and almost absurdly asymmetric shape to power down on invisible rock features. Compared to the lace-up Miura, this Velcro version is more geared to boulders and overhanging terrain. For it to perform in this capacity, it must be sized tightly, and by tight, it might mean painfully so. But to push the climbing grades, you sometimes have to sacrifice comfort. To be sure these precision tools won't be too painful for your feet, be sure to try them on before you buy them.
