Description of SCARPA Instinct VS: The Ultimate Rock Climbing Shoes for Sport Climbing and Bouldering
100% Textile. Imported. Synthetic sole. Built To Train | Featuring a moderate downturn and slight asymmetry, this climbing shoe offers the high-level performance you’ve come to expect from the Instinct series, with the sensitivity you want for bouldering and gym climbing. Vibram XS Grip 2 Rubber | Ideal for any rock type and style, the XS Grip 2 rubber is both stiff and sticky, giving you the grip you need for steeper walls and overhanging boulders. Flexan Dynamic Midsole | Offsetting the softer upper, the redesigned Flexan midsole is slightly stiffer, offering plenty of support and reducing foot fatigue on multi-pitch routes. Bi-Tension Rand | Using a reverse slingshot design, this system connects your heel to your toe, resulting in a more comfortable fit and more power being driven towards your primary edging surface. Reinforced Elastic Band | An elasticated band stretches over the forefoot, providing a fit that molds to the shape of your foot while ensuring that the shoe retains its shape over time.
