La Sportiva - Otaki

In Japanese samurai parlance, Otaki is the oldest single-edged sword: extremely sharp and precise, even on small targets. This concept is also perfectly applicable to sport climbing: Otaki is a precise, supportive, and structured climbing shoe, suitable for crags, routes, and bouldering thanks to features that meet the most modern climber's needs. The new construction combines the advantages of a flat shoe's uniform fit with the precision and volume adjustment of a strap-type shoe. This solution provides maximum sensitivity and precision, even when torsionally oriented: the shoe perfectly follows the climber's movements, avoiding empty spaces and rigid points. The extremely innovative heel construction features the S-Heel™ shell, which maintains perfect torsional stability, enhancing performance and adaptability in heel hooks, ideal for bouldering. The adoption of the P3 system also guarantees non-deformability over time and accentuates structure and support. Maximum precision, maximum performance.

• Newly developed construction that combines the advantages of the homogeneous wrapping of a ballet liner with the precision and volume adjustment of a liner with a strap closure
• Maximum sensitivity and precision of fit even in torsion: the liner perfectly follows the movements of the foot, avoiding empty volumes and rigid points - The adoption of the P3 System and the construction of the sole allow for accentuated support on small cracks and notches
• Heel with innovative S-Heel™ shell: allows for perfect stability in torsion, accentuating performance and adaptability in heel hooks
