Scarpa Vapor Climbing Shoe
The Vapor is a very technical face climbing shoe. It offers amazing support allowing you to stand on tiny edges, making it a perfect shoe for technical outdoor routes. The Vapor has a toe rubber patch that is made from the super sticky M-50 rubber, so if you need to toe hook then you can, it also adds more durability to the shoe and protects your toe knuckles. The Vapor has the new PAF heel system which pushes the back of the foot towards the front of the shoe, making them more precise on the toe. It has a full-length sole unit in Excess edge that wraps up in the arch which gives the shoe a little more support. The midsole is made from stiffer plastic which allows you to stand on tiny footholds for a long period of time without tiring out your foot muscles, this makes the Vapor especially good for long single pitch routes and multi-pitch routes.
