    Sensitivity meets structure

    I loved the toe rubber and structure of the Instinct VS, but wanted more sensitivity for better rock feel. I loved the sensitivity of the Drago, but wanted more structure for less foot fatigue. The VSR meets me right in the middle! Huge fan of this shoe; it's comfortably snug right out of the box and the rubber responds to the rock well without the frustrating break-in period I've come to expect from other shoes that feel overly slick for the first several uses. I'll be using this as my main steep bouldering shoe, and could even see it becoming an all-arounder for sport as well.

    THE HEEL! Finally!

    This is the only Scarpa shoe that actually fits my narrow heel. I've tried w's vsr, lv drago, basically everything Scarpa. After break in all were unusable for heel hooks EXCEPT the VSR LV. It's the perfect all around-er from gym, to boulder, to hard sport climbs. Performs well equally on small feet or smearing on slab.

    Not quite right

    I needed a low-volume, soft shoe but not with a comp. level of down-turn/ aggressiveness. Instinct LV shoe is lower volume, and it fit my long narrow feet reasonably well. I'm a lightweight climber, but with stiff joints. Instinct VSR LV shoe was, for me, too stiff/inflexible and down- turned. I need a stretchier rand, less down turn and more flexible rubber under the toes for smearing. I can't fault the shoe, its just not for me. Returned from an online order

    My Instinct VS issues have been resolved

    Got these shoes about 2 weeks ago and could not be happier the heel actually fits perfect ( I have rather narrow heels but a wide toebox). The first session bouldering these felt very similar to the VS just lower volume and they were decently stiff but after 3 sessions they have broken in more and are EXCELLENT for smearing and just seem to be a perfect companion to my stiffer instinct VS's. Worth the buy
