Scarpa Vapor Women Climbing Shoe

Vapor Women 2019

Rating

My vote: None ( 5.5 avg )

Description

Critically acclaimed and award winning, the Vapor family is a perfect way to breathe new life into your climbing day. Quite often, improving climbers don't want to stray too far from tried and tested shoes, but increasingly they want to experiment on different types of terrain. SCARPA appreciates the opportunities that alternative versions of shoes with similar basic designs can unlock. The single piece synthetic upper promotes a new concept in comfort, and minimal stitching eliminates "hot spots". The full-length outsole and increased stiffness are matched with Vibram® XS Edge rubber to offer the most supportive lace up in the entire climbing collection. The Vapor lace is built on the same last and utilizes the same Active Rand as the Vapor V, complimenting its softer relative extremely well.

Outdoor Gear Lab Gear Review rating 3/5

Overall, the Scarpa Vapor is a decent performer among our fleet this year. They scored slightly above average in all metrics and didn't have any huge drawbacks, besides the blisters and their difficulties with small holds. There are shoes that performed better, but similarly, there are shoes that scored much worse.

Next Adventure Gear Review rating 9/10

The bottom line is I love these shoes. When it comes time to buy a new pair or think about getting them resoled, I'm definitely going to consider these strongly and it's going to take a VERY good pair of shoes to get me to stray away from them. Indoor, outdoor, bouldering or sport climbing, these shoes really can tackle it all. What more could you really ask for in a pair of climbing shoes?

Climbing Zine Gear Review no rating given just a review

This shoe comes close to being a jack-of-all trades; it performs at a high level on a variety of rock types and angles. It’s a favorite for climbing in places like Eldorado Canyon, where I have to be able to jam cracks, smear on subtle slopers, and stand on tiny edges. Some people like a slightly aggressive, downturned shoe for climbing hard cracks; I’d recommend armoring the outer toes with a little shoe goo for this purpose.
