Which discipline and terrain are they for?

They are an entry-level climbing shoe for indoor climbing and beginners.

They are intended for recreational climbers looking for a reliable shoe for long training sessions on an artificial wall, bouldering or moderate multi-pitch routes.

Key features of the SCARPA Reflex VS

• Neutral last: The flat sole shape reduces pressure on the toes and ensures comfort during extended wear.
• Breathable construction: The upper, made from breathable materials, effectively wicks away moisture and keeps feet dry during intensive indoor training.
• Versatile use: The sole and rubber design offer an optimal balance of friction and durability for sport climbing and bouldering.
• Low weight: At 240 g (size 41), the shoes do not weigh down the feet and allow natural movement on holds.

In use

For indoor climbing, the neutral shape and breathable materials allow for long training sessions without needing to take the shoes off between routes.

On boulders and multi-pitch routes, the comfortable fit reduces foot fatigue while providing enough support for stable footholds on larger holds and footholds.

Shape and fit

The fit is designed with comfort in mind, so the last is neutral and less asymmetric, suiting a wider range of foot shapes.

Sizing: For climbing shoes, it is generally recommended to choose a size up to one size smaller than your usual footwear to eliminate excess space and improve precision. Beginners are advised to downsize less aggressively to preserve the shoe’s primary focus on comfort.
