Finds the Instinct S softer and more sensitive than other Instincts thanks to thinner rubber, with a slightly better heel fit and more comfort, though it doesn't last as long.

“Try the Instinct S. thinner rubber, more feels and softer, but still an instinct. For me it fits a little better in the heel and the softness makes it more comfy generally. It doesn’t last as long though.”

With low-volume heels, finds the Instinct S their second-best heel fit after the women's Skwama, about the same as the VSR LV.

positive

Finds the Instinct S has the best heel for them, even as a slipper, and very comfortable.
