Otaki $180
Whether I was pumping out limestone sport pitches, or dicing my way up sandstone slabs, or heel- and toe-hooking sandy boulder problems at Joe’s Valley, I was impressed with the shoe’s edging power. Small dishes, smears, pockets, and nubbins were no problem... In a time when climbing shoes are trending towards specialization and specific use cases, the Otakis stand out as a legitimate high-end all-around option. It sure does simplify life to be able to rely on one pair of shoes pretty much everywhere I go. Evening Sends

More from La Sportiva:
... the Otaki is well suited towards hanging around on small holds/edges (i.e. trad climbing) or using even smaller edges to move quickly and efficiently upwards to the lower-off (i.e. sport climbing). The stiffness and support that the boot offers makes it quite versatile, particularly for the UK climber, as it is well suited towards a wide variety of different angles from edgy slabs, through vertical walls, to gently overhanging terrain.
