Really great sport climbing shoe
4 years ago
Straight out of the box they immediately felt great. They are sensitive and feel sticky on the wall and a little more stiff than my other pair of dragos. Which is great for longer sport routes. The fit is awesome, the heel is definitely different but works great and forms to the holds you are using. No complaints on the shoe so far! I wear a street shoe size 42 euro and I sized these the same as my dragos which is a 41 euro.

Soft but not too soft

These shoes are an excellent performance bouldering and steep sport climbing shoe. I mostly climb in the gym and the Red and these are my go to for steep boulders and very overhung sport routes as they have enough stiffness for a full pitch unlike a Scarpa Furia Air. They wouldn't be my first choice for long slightly overhung routes where I want a bit more stiffness underfoot in something like the LS Katana Lace. When it comes to sizing, I wear a 46 in Scarpa approach shoes and I've found 44 in the Booster is a dream.

A step above the Instincts

These are as trustworthy and solid as the Scarpa Instincts, but have the mid-sole flexibility that makes them feel way more flexible and dynamic. I prefer these to the Instincts. Same stiff toe, but flexible body of the shoe means you can feel more in-tune with your foot on the wall.

Great Indoor Bouldering Shoe
1 year ago
I’ve really grown to love these for intermediate gym climbing. Softer and stickier than my Miuras, but stiffer toe than my Veloces, so edging isn’t painful. I really trust these shoes, rarely slip, and I get my best climbing done in them. Sizing-wise, I wear 42.5 EU street shoe and I downsized these to 41.5, which is snug and eventually gets painful during a session. It’s good for me. I could downsize to 40 if I wanted to be hardcore and leave no empty space in the heel.

decent shoes, for the price get something else

There like a mixture of instincts and dragos but worse. I climbed a lot in them for more than half a year and they work fine but I would definitely prefer a different one. The 2 straps get annoying when your taking them on and off a lot, the edging is mediocre and the heel is weird, get instincts
