Scarpa Origin VS Women's
Scarpa
Women's version of the Origin VS, keeping the same sticky S72 sole and M50 toe cap in a lower-volume fit. Where the leather Origin needs weeks to mold, this microfiber version fits well from day one - making it ideal for newer climbers who want to focus on technique rather than fighting their shoes.
Best For
Best for sport climbing and trad multipitch on slab and vertical terrain. Aimed at beginner to hobby climbers.
