Based on the original Instinct model, this new lace up is much lighter and sensitive with its microfibre upper and 3/4 Outsole design. Wrapped with TPU cage it gives great foot support and prevents torsional movement and roll during extreme edging. This has allowed us to bolt on the Instinct VS heel cup making this shoe an exceptional weapon for both sport climbers and boulderers. SCARPA athlete and well-known climber Robbie Phillips has written a series of informative guides on how to choose and get the most out of your climbing shoes. You can check them out here.
