The Scarpa Instinct VS-R (Limited Edition) White is a softer version of the classic Instinct VS shoe. Great for a range of sport climbing and bouldering, but really dialled down for those who climb mostly on plastic, those with a lighter frame, or for those looking to broaden their shoe collection. The VS-R maintains characteristics of the original in terms of fit and build, however the softer Vibram Grip 2 compound provides a higher sensitivity and feel on the wall.
For tough Sport climbs and committed bouldering moves you need ultimate confidence in your shoe – this is where the design and technology in the Scarpa Instinct VS-R comes into its own.
Inspired by the request of many of global athletes, in particular those competing on plastic, the new VSR offers the option of a softer rubber in your quiver of shoes. Same last, rands and characteristics of the legendary Instinct VS, but this version will appeal to plastic masters and those of a lighter frame, where the extra feel and sensitivity of the Vibram Grip 2 compound will be best suited.

The shoes perform exceptionally well on small edges and pockets. However, they take a bit to break in. Still, a solid choice.
