About La Sportiva B5
-
The La Sportiva B5 is one of a collection of new shoes that push the barrier between approach shoe and climbing boot, offering sheer grip, excellent impact resistance, great support and a snug, precise fit.
FEATURES
- Full sticky rubber rand over the toe box to help grip and protect the shoe.
- FriXion® XT rubber under the foot – sticky XF rubber in the “climbing zone” makes the B5 shine on easier routes.
- Impact Brake System (IBS) lugs (and softer AT lugs in the impact zones) absorb the shock and take the pain for you.
- Low-profile lacing system prevents catching in cracks and crevices.
- Narrow chiseled toe box offers a better fit for jamming into gaps
