INSTINCT VS MEN'S

For climbers who split their time between steep boulders and precise sport routes, the Instinct VS delivers a strong balance of power, sensitivity, and control. Built on the proven Instinct platform, this shoe helps you stay confident on micro-features, compression sequences, and technical vertical climbing. The microsuede upper offers a supportive, low-stretch fit that holds shape through long sessions, while the Bi-Tension™ active support system drives power to the toes without over-stiffening the shoe. A Vibram® XS Edge forefoot and Vibram® XS Grip 2 heel provides reliable stability on small footholds, while the sculpted heel and toe rubber increase security for hooking on rock and gym holds alike.

 

Comfortable enough for long climbs yet powerful enough for hard boulders, the Instinct VS is designed for climbers who want precise movement and all-around performance.
