In reply to UKC Gear:

Now, if only there was some stock of Sportiva climbing shoes available to buy somewhere........

In reply to dyfed:

Hi Dyfed.

The Futura is available at selected retailers only. Try
Urban Rock http://www.urbanrock.com/search?searchstring=la+sportiva&x=0&y=0
The Castle Climbing Centre http://www.castle-climbing.co.uk/

Other La Sportiva shoes are now generally available but they’ve been so popular that demand is hard to keep up with!
Ask your local La Sportiva retailer and they should be able to sort stock.

In reply to Lyon Outdoor:

Why would you only have selected retailers selling the Futura? Why not just make all La Sportiva retailers able to sell them?

In reply to Hazelnuts:

Ive stopped buying la sportiva shoes, not really my choice but if you cant get them, what can you do?

In reply to Hazelnuts:

Presumably, given all the trouble with stock they seem to have had over the past year, they can only make a limited number and allocate those to shops likely to sell the most.

Will we be able to climb at The Castle as usual tomorrow- or is it comp only?
