We asked our Gen Z front deskers to whip up a promo for this week’s La Sportiva shoe demo. Safe to say, they delivered a masterpiece. Raise your hand if you can translate this 🤚
Come by on December 3, from 6-9 PM and take some La Sportivas for a test drive! If you like ‘em, you can bring them home with a 20% discount. If not, try on the next pair!
