Scarpa

Arpia $165

Celebrating its 80th anniversary in 2018, Scarpa, an industry leader in footwear, unveiled a collection of 20 new or redesigned products for spring 2019. One of the standout products for indoor and outdoor climbers was the Scarpa Arpia.

The Scarpa Arpia is a medium-rigid shoe characterized by a microfibre upper, which is finished internally with a soft fabric to increase comfort. Designed for climbers looking to transition from a traditional flat last to a more performance-oriented rock shoe, the new Arpia is an all-around performer that is more aggressive and downturned than the flat-lasted Force V, but softer than the Vapor V. Great for you boulderes who don’t need the most aggressive shoe on the market.
