Scarpa Spot Low Volume

Versatile climbing shoes with a narrow fit

The Scarpa Arpia V Low Volume are versatile climbing and bouldering shoes with a narrow fit, making them ideal for somewhat advanced boulderers and climbers. They are significantly more aggressive than entry-level models, yet still offer comfort and versatility. You can easily wear them for sport climbing and bouldering both outdoors and indoors.

Construction

Overall, the construction leans towards sensitivity and friction. The relatively soft sole made from 3.5 mm thick Vibram XS Grip 2 rubber provides a good feel for footholds and is particularly suitable for stepping on volumes and standing against the wall. Combined with a relatively aggressive downturn, these shoes are best suited for modern bouldering and short, steep sport climbing routes.

Fit

The shoes have a narrow fit, which is best for feet with low volume and a flat arch. However, with the help of the two Velcro straps, you can easily adjust the width or tightness of the shoe. Scarpa particularly recommends these shoes for feet with a Greek shape, meaning feet where the second toe is longer than the big toe. Ultimately, it is essential that you feel comfortable in the shoes.

Conclusion

For those who primarily boulder or love steep sport climbing routes, the Spot offers the perfect all-rounders with excellent friction capabilities.
