Scarpa Instinct Lace Shoes Women black/aqua

The lacing variant of the Instinct family has been further developed and now not only convinces with its new look but also offers extreme grip and a terrific power transmission due to the TPU reinforcement of the microfiber upper material. The Arrowhead Toe Randing ensures maximum precision for small steps and in combination with the VIBRAM XS Edge sole, the Instinct Lace becomes a surprisingly comfortable high-performance shoe for sport climbing and also for long multi-pitch routes.

Vibram XS Edge
Developed to provide maximum edging support, the Vibram XS Edge compound delivers excellent pure grip while adding improved firmness for the most challenging edging moves. Thanks to an improved resistance to plastic distortion, it keeps its shape even after hours of use, maintains consistent feel in both hot and cold temperatures, and is formulated for improved durability.

Bi-Tension
Basically, a reverse slingshot rand that's anchored under the critical toe area and connects directly to the heel rand, only there's nothing basic about it. The patent-pending system actively pulls power from the toes, rather than cramming your toes painfully forward, giving immediate performance with less tension. And that means less rubber, making your shoes lighter, more sensitive and more reactive.
