Featuring a large toe rubber patch for superior hooking and a lightly asymmetrical last, these low-profile shoes deliver precision and comfort on steep sport climbs and bouldering problems. Designed to fit close to street shoe sizing, they offer minimal cushioning and exceptional sensitivity at just 7.6 ounces, making them a top choice for climbers seeking performance without compromise. ## Description A more supple version of our award-winning instinct vs, the instinct vsr features Vibram grip2 rubber and a more snug fit across the top of the forefoot, with the same form-fitting, sock-style fit and a lightly asymmetrical last that excels across the spectrum of hard climbing. Perfectly suited to lighter climbers. Review: Perfect climbing shoe - I’m beyond happy with these climbing shoes. They’re very comfortable and fit my foot perfectly (flat, slightly wide, and with a large heel). I wear a 10.5 in street shoes. I got these one full size down looking for a snug but bearable fit. I recommend going half or a full size down if you’re aiming for a perfect fit. I loved the heel — I think it’s perfect for me. I’ve compared them with the La Sportiva Solution (41.5), and I honestly feel like these are an improved version. Review: Softer than the VS and good for wide feet - I’m a 5’0” female with big and wide feet for my size, 8 (street shoes). I needed to ship out my Scarpa Instincts VS to get resoled and wanted to try other options as a 2nd shoe. I didn’t go very far since I ended up with these VSR. They are a lot softer than the men’s VS that I have. It is tight as I’m still breaking them in but I don’t reckon they’ll loosen up, this material doesn’t. So far, performance is good. Can smear, heel hook and send in just about every way. Only thing is the toe hooks are sensitive. Good but sensitive. The shoes are thin material so you’ll feel everything. ## Features - EU Size: 41.5 – US Size: 9.5 Women/8.5 Men | Runs Small, Street Shoe Sizing Strongly Recommended - Less Stiff, Same Stick | As the younger sibling of the Instinct VS, the VSR is suited to lighter climbers who found the original model to be a bit too stiff. - Sizing Advice | While most climbers size down for a performance-oriented fit, most VSR-owners suggest sizing similar to your street shoe size or larger, especially since the synthetic upper doesn’t stretch much. - 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. - Toe Rubber | A large patch of rubber on top gives you maximum coverage for toe hooks and bat hangs. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01HTP31VI | | Best Sellers Rank | #205,531 in Shoes & Handbags ( See Top 100 in Shoes & Handbags ) #13,653 in Men's Running Shoes | | Brand | Scarpa | | Closure Type | Hook-Loop-Closure | | Colour | Black/Azure | | Cushioning Level | Minimal | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 49 Reviews | | Fit to Size Sentiment | Positive | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00666898650064 | | Has Shoe Adjustability | Yes | | Heel Type | No Heel | | Insole Cushioning | Minimal | | Insole Material | Flexan | | Item Type Name | Climbing Shoe | | Item Weight | 7.6 Ounces | | Lining Description | Fabric | | Manufacturer | SCARPA | | Manufacturer part number | 70015/000-BlkAzr-41.5 | | Material Type | Rubber | | Model Name | Scarpa | | Model number | 70013/002 | | Occasion Lifestyle | Outdoor | | Occasion description | sports | | Outer Material Type | Rubber | | Pattern | solid | | Season | Autumn | | Shoe Height Map | Low Top | | Shoe Type | Athletic Shoe | | Sole Material | Vibram XS Grip 2 (3.5mm) | | Special Feature | Vibram XS Grip 2 Rubber, Large patch of rubber on top for toe hooks and bat hangs | | Specific Uses For Product | Climbing | | Sport Type | Rock Climbing | | Strap Type | Velcro | | Style Name | Scarpa Instinct Vsr Climbing Shoe | | Subject Character | Occupational professional | | Theme | Rock Climbing | | Toe Style | Closed Toe | | UPC | 666898650064 | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | number-of-items | 1 | ## Images ![SCARPA Instinct VSR Rock Climbing Shoes for Sport Climbing and Bouldering - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ojGgdKtNL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect climbing shoe *by G***I on 4 August 2025* I’m beyond happy with these climbing shoes.
