Really likes the Booster and it suits their toe shape, but the heel has so much dead space it makes farting sounds.

Their Boosters' heels are baggy too; over time they flattened and became much less aggressive, now just baggy at the sides.
Wears Boosters periodically alongside their VSRs.
Boosters can climb stiffer than the VS thanks to their tension, yet the flexible midfoot lets you use them like a softer shoe.
Boosters are softer but very asymmetrical, and the minimal heel needs more precision to avoid pain.
Owns both: the Booster's asymmetry is more tiring over hours, especially for flat feet.
Their last shoe was the Scarpa Booster and they were quite happy with its performance.
Hates the Booster heel and finds it a bit too soft in general.
Absolutely loves the Booster heel: super soft, sensitive and fits like a sock, though they'd prefer more toe rubber and one less strap.
The Booster sits between the Drago and Instinct: wide-ish forefoot and a thin heel that feels baggy but works; they've sent projects in it.
The 2020 Booster is awesome after a rough month-long break-in: great precise edging, smedging and smearing, more sensitive than Instincts, and it has held up to outdoor climbing 3 days a week.
Has Scarpa Boosters and finds them a good middle ground for stiffness and aggressiveness.
Their Boosters have some of the shallowest heels they own, super precise toes, a bit stiffer than Dragos, with a funky soft heel.
