- Adam Ondra came to La Sportiva HQ in Ziano di Fiemme to have a quick visit and a chat with La Sportiva product specialist, climber and long time friend Pietro dal Prà. Adam and Pietro both lived the evolution of La Sportiva climbing shoes. Let's here something more about the three special shoes that will accompany our athlete during his next performances!
I like how this is effectively a commercial, but such a good one that all the comments are super positive. Loved finding out the thought that goes into my Theories.
I think this is what a commercial actually should be, giving you insight on the product, showing how is created and for what is created rather than selling some bs lifestyle.
My favourite shoes ❤️ the theories
I think soon commercials will change. Humans are not the same as 50 years ago when they invented the format. We don't want rushed manipulative soundbites, we want to be properly informed and don't mind taking a few minutes to watch it if they make it properly. That being said, I don't have TV so I don't know what commercials are like nowadays, but I can't imagine it changed much in 15 years.
@@cosmossupreme2338 Same! Im on my third pair. Such a good shoe :)
@@mannyme2986 Says you, I got the theories so I can pick up bitches at the bouldering gym with my new drip
Good to see the work that actually goes in to the shoe. I can appreciate the cost of them even more.
3:40 Cobra 4.99: Designed for speed comp
4:42 Theory: Recommended for bouldering
5:48 Solution Comp: Recommended for lead climbing
Do well in Tokyo Adam. I'm rooting for you, man.
I found some second-hand la sportiva shoes that I bought so that my brother could take my climbing for my first time. Now, those shoes are falling apart and I love the sport. I’ll always be thankful for my shoes!
get them repaired, 20 bucks in most countries
I wear La Sportiva shoes now for over to decades. this video makes me understand even more, why this brand is so outstanding. I can see the passion and the knowledge these guys have to create shoes.
And the hypetrain on the Mantra starts NOW 😜
dude, just saw that. so hyped. never tried the originals, but I love thin shoes.
Simply spectacular the work you do guys. Hats off.
This is how commercials should be. Enjoyable, rich in content and done by experts on the product. Compare that to the average TV commercial...
Wait a minute who are you
Would be nice to see an extended and more in depth video about the production process. This seems intresting.
theory's are such a good bouldering shoe, it's definitely my go-to and the sock inside is really confortable
Very well produced video. Thank you for helping us climb harder!
Siete grandi continuate cosi!!!
Who's gonna end up with the shoe Adam Ondra made???
It would be cool if Adam made himself a pair. If I was La sportiva, that's what I would have done.
My Solution never got comfortable, even after 3 years, lol. But it's a well made shoe, that's for sure.
I bought both the La Sportiva Theory and Solution! Why? Because I have money haha now I can boulder and sport climb in style with the best shoes ever!
Wow let's go with those Mantras already
Love the Theory! Except the yellow rubber on the heel, definitely feels less sticky... Why @LaSportiva???
Heel is still xsgrip2 unless I am mistaken, and stickiness of rubbers is tested rather than felt.
The biggest weak point about the Solutions imho is the bands. Over time the bands get abrased at the front eyelid making the shoe temporarily unusable (even though the rubber is still good). Fortunately you can fix it by sewing a new durable band, which of course requires some time and handiwork
I like La sportiva, but I like soooooo much black diamond and Scarpa!💙💚
They are WORTH $200+ = It's about time!
i wear the lasportiva cobra shoes nine years...
Would be nice if they were made in my size. US 14 or European 48
How about a specialist crack climbing shoe?
TC Pro
I had problems with the la sportiva beginner shoes because I have a fairly wide foot. The la sportiva shoes i fit in width wise are too long.
Have you tried the Mytos?
@@NestorMandela not yet, no. But the pictures look like they could fit me well. Gotta try those.
@@DUDA-__- those are what I use and for my first climbing shoes they are pretty comfy. I have flat feet and I usually wear them for 2h in the gym no problem. For reference I wear a 42.5EU street size and got a 40.5EU Mythos.
Mythos are great if you have difficulty finding well fitting shoes, as the laces let them adjust super well. Do mind that they are made from leather and expand quite a lot and I mean a lot.
Scarpa typically uses a wider last (which does not fit me).
Is there lasportiva online store in India?
Anybody knows the song starting at 03:00 ?
Unfortunately, I can't recommend buying La Sportiva shoes. I bought a pair of Solutions for my son and the straps broke in 4 months (indoor climbing only). The strap design is flawed and the grommets wear through the strap very quickly. You cannot repair it yourself - you have to take to a cobbler to have a new strap installed and La Sportiva refuses to warranty the product. They claim it's "wear and tear." La Sportiva customer service has been completely unhelpful (and kind of rude, to boot). It's a shame, because the shoes perform well, but La Sportiva does not stand behind its products - this is a known issue and I've seen lots of reports of this issue on-line.
I put a thin strip of finger tape on the strap where it rubs against the metal and I just replace the piece of tape when it rubs off, seems to be holding up for now.
is theory a good shoe after my skwamas are done
I climb barefoot. But enjoying the video nevertheless!
What is the theory behind, "lighter people should go for lighter shoes"?
the only shoe that i found comfortable for me was
Energia X
What's the model in 8:05?
Looks like the new Mantra, which is coming soon. Might be wrong though :)
It’s actually the new Katana- I saw Paige Claasen wearing them the other day
womens Katana Lace
The theory looks a lot more aggressive than I’m used to. Kind of surprised it’s a bouldering shoe considering mine are almost flat.
being super sensitive and less rubber they are susceptible to losing the shape
If you thought this video was good, then watch the Magnus video with the designers from Scarpa (you’ll want to switch to Scarpa)
Please send me a pair I will live my life for Sportiva...
Just get a miura
Scammers, avoid this company if you dont want to get scammed. Worst customer service ever. We ended up paying for order which was lost, no refund after more than month. Horrible, I hope you will bancrupt soon.
Trying to do 3 disciplines is an absolute joke and a flog.
Speed climbing is as boring as it gets for starters.
Also no one person is the best in 3 disciplines so it's just sh!t show and we're not going to see the full potential of Climbing.
Do surfers swim 100 metres and surf and skate and snowboard?
I don't think so so why are climbers expected to be good in all 3 disciplines. It's not going to show the best of Climbing and the organisers need to have they're heads put in a bag seriously 😡🤬
I like scarpa better, disliked
Why are you wearing those useless coffee filters?
because of corona, if they hadnt been wearing them, twitter would be mad as fck right now
