Scarpa Origin VS

Competitively priced and offering entry-level comfort straight out of the box, the Origin climbing shoe delivers the performance and materials you’d expect from Scarpa’s top-end models. These qualities have been there from the start, and Scarpa has now refined the Origin further, enhancing its core features while introducing thoughtful new updates.

Built in Europe’s shoemaking heartland and shaped around a comfort-focused last, the Origin VS delivers a relaxed, neutral fit with minimal pressure on the heels and toes. This updated version features a slightly wider toe box to better suit modern fit preferences and is now available in EU half sizes for improved precision. The upper uses the same premium dual-ply microfibre found in the Instinct series, providing instant comfort with controlled stretch over time.

Underfoot, the Origin VS is fitted with an S72 rubber outsole, widely regarded as one of the stickiest compounds available, paired with an M50 toe patch taken directly from Scarpa’s high-performance line for outstanding grip. The refined toe patch is softer and more flexible, boosting comfort straight out of the box while maintaining high levels of performance. A single competition-style Velcro strap combined with a high-stretch gusset allows for quick entry and a secure, wrap-around fit.

Whether you’re padding delicately up a gritstone slab, bouncing between gym macros, or toe-hooking a burly volume, the Origin VS delivers reliable performance, move after move. Ideal for new, experienced climbers looking for value, performance and comfort. This shoe is perfect for all-day comfort while trad climbing, as well as for indoor and outdoor bouldering.
