I'm not familiar with all the nuisances of bouldering shoes or the applications for various climbs, but this is my go to shoe. I've used it for granite, sandstone and limestone and feel like they do the job well and don't take long for me to break in. I have had some issues with the rubber on the toe box lifting a couple month or so in, but I think this is from normal wear or temperature fluctuations.

I bought this a month ago for my son and I’m so happy I did! He was going from a much less aggressive shoe to this one for the first time. Wow, what a difference! He’s so much more confident in the overhangs, and the aggressiveness of the shoe really helps sticks to those chips! The heel is a bit bigger than expected but they fit as expected otherwise! It’s taken a while to break in, due to the amount of rubber - which we all love! So hang in there, they will fit after a while, probably still going to be “climbing comfortable”, not something to wearing around the house on a Sunday morning when not out climbing!

The Instinct VSRs were a better fit for my foot than the regular Instincts were. I’ve had them for about half a year and there is no sign of wear. Additionally, there is a great heel hook feature and the shoe is just aggressive enough to climb overhang but not too aggressive to make it difficult for slab. Overall the shoe works well for all styles of climbing and seems durable enough to last for a long time

Got them about 5 months ago, and I just popped holes in them, which is better than normal for me. The shoes aren't quite as comfortable or soft as dragos since they are slightly more stiff, but the rubber is very sticky. The pull-on loop on the top is a welcome addition and confuses me as to why it isn't on every scarpa shoe.

The perfect blend of stiffness and support in the toe, and flexibility in the midsole to DO IT ALL without feeling too much like a generalist shoes. A weapon shoe. I have relatively wide mid foot and square toes and this feels great. 1-2 session breakin.
