Review on πŸ‘ž SCARPA Men's Vapor V: Versatile Sport Climbing and Bouldering Shoes by Richard Muncy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

second pair, heavy duty intermediate athletic shoes

I am a woman who wears size 8.5 outdoor shoes and 40 Vapor V (men, this shoe) fits great. They last a reasonable amount of time before wearing out at the toes; I worked with the first pair for a year and climbed about 8 hours a week in the gym. I have wide forefeet (bumps) but a rather narrow heel. My toes hurt on top the first few uses, but my shoes and feet quickly adjusted. I take them off when belaying, but I can leave them on for an hour or so when bouldering. They're great for hooks, I have no problem balancing on tiny feet, and they're also flat enough to smudge easily. The only thing I rarely do with them is the heel hooks; Consider a more aggressive shoe next time you're bouldering, but for a versatile athletic shoe, they're hard to beat.
