Narrow heel cup perfect for small-medium heels. I have a tiny, narrow heel that is difficult to fit for. These can still slip off my heel in hard hooking, but I haven’t found anything better ?Definitely recommend these if you can find them for a decent price. I have been climbing in them for about 3 months now and I love them.I have been wearing 8.5s-9s for years now. I had bad luck with a Black Diamond shoe, so I figured I'd go 9.5 with the Scarpa, just to be safe. The shoe is embarrassingly small. Enclosed is a picture of my "9.5" Scarpa next to my 8.5 Vans. I can't even get my foot in the thing! Did I understand sizing incorrectly? Probably not. I was excited to climb tomorrow, and now I'll be wearing my tight Black Diamonds.Good bouldering shoes that definitely let you make the most of tiny foot holds.Must have shoes!!! They rock! Would buy again!My absolute favorite pair of climbing shoes so far. I've also had 5.10 rogues, Butora acros (wide) and a pair of Tenaya shoes. These aren't too aggressive but definitely allow for comfortable movement on marginal holds. Mine were worn in and used everywhere from >45 degree overhang and on slabby slab and now they're worn out after about 3-4 years of consistent bouldering and sport climbing indoors and outdoors about 3-4x / week.As an asian guy these are some of the only performance shoes I can wear comfortably for extended periods of time. That being said I also see tons of white people wearing the velcro version around so maybe they're just more ergonomic than most shoes
