A bouldering-specific climbing shoe designed for beginners with an emphasis on comfort from La Sportiva. Designed specifically for bouldering and indoor climbing the Tarantula Boulder from La Sportiva the latest variant from the line of the same name. A neutral last enables the Boulder to accommodate all foot shapes allowing those first embarking on their climbing journey to be on the rock or volumes for longer, thus developing better technique and strength. The half sole provides broad movement ability with increased sensitivity on crimps and edges, the unit ideal for those looking for the first starter shoe that will allow them to progress fast. Ideal for the regular climber, the sole unit of the Boulder can be re-soled, allowing your Tarantula to evolve with your climbing progression. A slightly more adept heel construction enhances the fit and allows for heel hooking performance. A rubber toe cap which integrated into the range optimises the shoe for toe hook should you embark on more demanding bouldering problems. With an upper constructed from leather suede, the shoe provides multiple hours of comfort. As with all leather shoes, please be aware the fabric will stretch to a degree, thus comforting to your foot. The midsole uses LaSpoFlex 1.1mm to complete a durable midsole that provides some rigidity without compromising on dexterity. Boulder uses FriXion Black for the main sole unit for exceptional grip on the wall. Featuring velcro adjustments ideal for multiple hours of bouldering the Tarantula Boulder the perfect shoe for those embarking on their climbing journey. For the climb - La Sportiva.

I ordered a pair of the Zenits in the same size and they were much smaller than the Tarantula Boulders. The Tarantula Boulders do fit bigger, I would say 1/2 size than other shoes I have tried. I ordered a 41.5 (8.5 US) and they fit me almost perfectly. I typically wear a size 9 or 9.5 US street shoe.The rubber feels great, and they are surprisingly comfortable. Good curve in them but not quite as aggressive as the Solutions. Easy to get on with the pull straps in the back. The Velcro strap pieces have plenty of room to adjust tightness. Overall they're solid for the price.

Sizing is much larger than most La Sportiva shoes. If you wear a 40 in most, you are a 39 at best in this.

These are my first pair of climbing shoes. I have been renting shoes for indoor bouldering for a few months now. I was instantly more successful on the wall when I put these on. Their construction seems really solid and I feel like I will buy the same pair again when these get worn out. I like the extra rubber on the toe and I feel secure in these. I usually wear size 9 and sometimes 9.5 for street shoes. Sometimes 9's are too small.. I got these in 40.5 and the fit is tight and perfect. Toes are perfectly crammed without them being uncomfortable. I originally bought 41.5's but those had a little too much wiggle room at the toes, so I exchanged them.
I've been bouldering for a couple of months now and I wanted to invest in a pair that would help me on the grip side for V3-V4s, the rental one being mediocre. I gotta say, I absolutely love my shoes! They are a perfect fit for me (took one size down), nice and tight. I would greatly recommend them for beginners who don't want to spend too much on high level shoes.
Not what I have come to expect from LA Sportiva, wide loose fit around the ankle, sole is coming appart. Had decent edging while it lasted.
I have not climbed in these yet, so the star rating is irrelevant for this review. I ordered these in the same size as my Finales that are hurting my feet and these are much, much bigger. So big that I will need to return them because I have space at the end of the shoe. I'm not sure how many sizes larger they are, but they are easily a full size larger than the Finales. I just wanted to get this out ASAP since there are no other reviews at this time.
I've been using these almost daily for a few weeks and they've been great. This is my first pair but I did a lot of research before buying and they meet all the demands!
Bought these so I can have a second pair of shoes while I get my high end shoes repaired, I wanted a harder rubber for more durable wear than the others I wear.I'm usuelly a 9.5 or 10 of street shoe. I went with a 41.5Wore them inside for a few hrs. Tight on the sides, heal was a little loose hurt a little bit along the edge of the shoe at the back of the heal. There was a periodic fart sound as I walked, the bottom of my arch had an air pocket.Decided I'd keep them and went for a climb and a second the next day.First time they felt klunky as my good shoes are very tight. At the end of the climb they started feeling OK.The next climb they felt tighter and felt bad a$$ on my feet. Like a glove. I Did some epic climbs and no issues. Yes a little harder ...
