- JSJeffrey S.Verified BuyerReviewingARPIA VI recommend this productBought For Bouldering, Sport Climbing, Gym, TradRated 5 out of 5 starsJuly 20, 2026Great for large feet with long second toe!
I have long narrow feet (size 50) with a long second toe. These are extremely comfortable, and fit my foot shape well. Excellent edging and control.

Love the product, very good for fun climbing.
- CColinReviewingARPIA VI recommend this productBought For Bouldering, GymRated 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 6, 2026Fantastic all around shoe
The moment I put on a new pair it's comfortable while also suctioning to my feet. There is a bit of a breaking in period but it's never painful only discomfort at first. This shoe allowed me to expand my climbing capabilities without sacrificing comfort. I don't think I'll ever buy another shoe unless they manage to top this one. The snugger they are to your feet the longer the rubber toe end will last as well. Also it is very easy to downsize 2.5+ euro sizes or more from your everyday shoes for optimal fit
- BBBoulder b.ReviewingARPIA VRated 3 out of 5 starsJanuary 16, 2025Width the size of the Grand Canyon.
Shoe length is true to size, good compression on the toe, and nice form to the sole. However, it's way too wide. Ankle rolls around loose, and top velcro strap is way long so it flaps and can easily get caught/ be undone when climbing. Would not recommend unless you really downsize, which could get the width right but then is too compressed on the toes. Basically width to length ratios are off with this one.
- DdavedadReviewingARPIA VI recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 starsJanuary 2, 2025Great shoe for comfort and performance
I have climbed in the old Arpia and my performance shoe is the Instinct VS. The new Arpia V fits nicely into the niche below the Instinct. I have used them indoors and outdoors about a dozen days already. They have a wide forefoot and are very comfortable without sacrificing performance. I use them for all my indoor bouldering and as my outdoor shoe on everything but my project burns. They run a bit bigger than the Instinct VS. I wear a 44 in the Instinct and got these as a 44 also. Were I to buy them again I would size down a half size to get better performance. I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a shoe to bridge the gap between entry level and toe crushers.
