Built for sport climbers and boulderers who demand sensitivity and power, the Scarpa Instinct VS men's climbing shoes have a precise fit, tough synthetic uppers and grippy soles to help you send.
- Curved, asymmetrical last combines with a moderately downturned profile to create an all-around shoe that handles a variety of climbing styles at the highest level
- Slightly softer construction and thinner soles provide enhanced flexibility and sensitivity, making Instinct VS the cornerstone of the Scarpa Performance line
- Bi-Tension system is a tensioned rubber wrap reaching down 2 sides of the shoe, giving priority to sensitivity and subtle support
- Specially adapted to slightly asymmetrical shoes, Bi-Tension runs under the front of the toes and down along the sides of the foot, leaving the center pad for sensitivity
- 7-panel synthetic microsuede uppers feature a floating leather power strap to enhance fit and provide power
- Rubber toe patch provides maximum toe hooking power
- Flexan 1.0 mm midsoles for precise support
- Strategically placed Vibram® XS Edge (3.5 mm) in the forefoot and Vibram XS Grip 2 (2 mm) in the heel
- Perfect for bouldering, sport climbing and technical face climbing
