Dropped the Furia Air for Dragos as their go-to: extremely light and sensitive, but the heel is virtually nonexistent and hurts, and toe hooking is poor.

Uses their Furia Air just for slab and finds even there an Unparallel Leopard II performs better.

Has worn Furia Airs exclusively for years: great articulation and sensitivity, stronger toes, and about 9 V10 boulders sent in them; not a budget shoe.

positivesensitiveoverpriced

Uses the Furia Air only when travelling, about a dozen sessions in three months, and resoles them at least once a year; durability is well below the Instinct VSR.

Absolutely loves their Furia Airs: beyond soft, you feel everything and can do almost anything, though the heel bags out badly.

positivesensitivestretches a lot

Loves their Furia Airs for amazing sensitivity and softness; they lasted 18 months before the rand holed.

positivesensitivedurable

Their Furia Airs edge a bit better than Veloces but are worse for toe and heel hooking.

Furia Air heels are even softer and more sensitive than Boosters, and the soft fabric stretches, so size down an extra half size.

Bought Furia Airs on sale: fun on soft smeary sandstone, basalt or very steep rock, but probably the worst edging shoes of all time.

mixed

Loves the Furia Air: about as sensitive as it gets with a fairly low-volume heel, though not great for heel hooks.

Moved from women's Miura Laces to the Furia Air: the soft shoe gave confidence on friction-dependent rock and high smears, but their footwork suffered and they wore down far too quickly in the gym.

“Soft Scarpa shoes gave me confidence on friction-dependent rock, but I think my footwork suffered. I wasn't pressing hard enough and they also wore down way too quickly in the gym.”
