Scarpa Instinct VS Womens

— Show original

Excellent shoe with excellent features for even the most demanding indoor and outdoor climbing. The best climbing shoe model for my foot. It was difficult to find a suitable shoe when I have weak bones and relatively long toes, but otherwise a narrow foot size 39.5, but these fit well after “breaking in”. The stickers make breaking in easier, as the shoes are quick to take off and put back on. I bought a second pair of these now, when the first ones went to the sole. The break-in time for this new pair was almost non-existent, as my foot was already used to the model.

Great shoe! Fits snug and is one of very few shoes that fit my heel. Unfortunately the rubber on the toe doesn’t last very long. But the performance is great! The toe pressure point is a bit toward toe 2.

Excellent shoes for the more advanced climber. The fit is of course subjective, but in the right size they are comfortable and reliable in the real place on the wall. They clearly brought more opportunities for climbing compared to previous beginner shoes.

Versatility and performance of the Instinct series with a softer rubber and a lower volume heel. Now I just wish they release a more neutral colorway for this shoe and it’d be perfect.

Love the shoes, but they run a bit small, have to exchange.

Other similar shoes. Super comfortable and high performance.

Bought in 1 EU size down. Compared with La Sportiva Solution Women's that I have with 1.5 EU size down which I wear comfortably after 2 sessions, this pair is very much harder to break-in, and the toe box is narrower. I still feel pain in the big toe knuckles after 5 sessions of bouldering. Yet a good pair of climbing shoes with sticky rubber.
