This happened to one of my older version pairs as well. One of my shoe laces already had the inner core poke through the end of the lace, just from trying to push it through the last eyelet one time. The new version might be a little tighter through the midfoot, but my old pair could just be stretched out more also.

The finger/hand crack was definitely the highlight since that is a typical situation I would reach for my Katanas outside. When I moved to the slab wall and tried a route with lots of smearing on volumes, I was impressed at how secure I felt on everything despite the rubber being brand new (and XS EDGE). I was originally bummed at the way the heel felt when I did my first couple climbs. One gym session is not enough to judge a pair of shoes.

My other LS shoes sizes are Katana Lace 43.5 previous model (all-day comfort, thin cracks), TC Pro 43.5 previous model (all-day comfort) Skwama 41.5 (performance yet comfy fit after stretch), Kataki 42 (performance yet comfy), Otaki 41.5 (performance/tight). My “all-day comfort” fit has been 43.5 in the previous Katana Lace model, but since the new TC Pro model seemed to grow a half size, I opted to downsize a half size to 43 for the 2022 Katana. I’m a 44.5 in LaSpo trail runners and approach shoes. I think that the NEW version has more asymmetry compared to the old, which could perhaps explain this flatter toe profile since my foot is more on the asymmetric side. When measuring the forefoot with a ruler, the OLD version toebox is actually a couple mm wider, but when putting my old pair on after the gym sesh for reference, it was obvious how much more cramped my toes were in the OLD version. 75/tight-1s section I could get far more of my toes/foot in than typical, making for a much more enjoyable experience on my ankles. 4/.5 section seemed to have extra purchase and for the. I had done this crack multiple times in my older Katanas and Skwamas, and this was the easiest it had ever felt for my footwork. This was very noticeable when I climbed the fingers to tight hands crack (at the gym). In the old version I always had some toe curl, especially my 2nd toe, but also in the three smallest. The most noticeable difference for me in the NEW version is that my three smallest toes lay flatter in the new KL.
