    Lightweight

    Thought I'd give Scarpa a try after wearing La Sportiva approach shoes for years. Toe box is very generous in size, with the rest of the shoe fitting normally.

    Most disappointing is the paper thin tongue, which provides no padding at all, so laces can be felt rubbing on top of my foot. I have to place pieces of foam between the laces and tongue to make the shoes wearable.

    Outsole is slippery at first, which is normal, but improves after wearing a few times and is good enough for tackling challenging obstacles. Outsole is also thin compared to La Sportivas, so will undoubtedly wear out faster.

    Lack of sturdy leather means the uppers aren't going to last long getting rubbed along sandstone and limestone.

    Overall, these shoes are not suitable for comfortable scrambling, and are unlikely to last very long.

    Will go back to a different brand for my next pair.

    Technical Terrain, distance oriented approaches

    Rapid gtx excels at distance; big approaches over challenging hiking terrain. Long hikes into technical approach terrain, like a long trail across a creek, into a talus field, across some snow or glacier, to the base of a climb. You’d probably wear climbing shoes for the technical rock climbing, but youd be happy to put these on when you summit to descend (they are light weight for a gtx show for sure) or you might put them on back at the base.

    It is comfortable and ankle supportive, stiff enough for rocky trail but has a trail runner shoe feel. Patagonia approaches, early spring in the sierra, getting around the rockies, thats what Im using these for. Love them.

    The Unsung Hero of Every Climbing Day

    These approach shoes are unmatched in their performance and comfort. From 15 mile trail runs to moderate multi-pitches to puddle-stomping and snow-tromping on approaches, these shoes have always shown up for me! I've often struggled to find an approach shoe that both climbs well and feels comfortable for long runs and hikes, but this shoe has performed so well in all of its uses. It's also so breathable while providing a high level of water resistance. Highly reccomend!
