What climbers keep saying · from 15 reviews

Veloces are the only shoes they have resoled in over 10 years of climbing; likes the wide toe box.

positivecomfortabledurable

Does about 80% of their climbing in Veloces, saving the pricier Drago XT for climbs that need it.

positivecomfortable

After a couple of years of steady climbing they love their Scarpa Veloce and want a similar shoe for indoor and outdoor sport; La Sportiva doesn't fit their feet.

positivecomfortable

With an Egyptian foot, the Veloce is the shoe they've owned with the most room for the big toe.

positivecomfortable

Had Veloces in size 49 and found them brutal; the shoe just didn't suit their foot shape.

negativepainful

Has climbed in the Veloce: really comfortable, but the heel is too baggy and it gets a tad too soft on some climbs.

mixedcomfortable

Loves their LV Veloces at street size, though at times they're too soft.

positivecomfortable

Their new Veloces are noticeably stickier than their old slippery Finales and make them trust volumes again.

positivesticky rubber

Likes the Veloce for both smearing and coordination moves on volumes: very soft rubber, a flexible structure and a comfort-focused fit.

positivecomfortablesticky rubber

Found the Veloce similarly comfortable to the Instinct VSR but much softer.

positivecomfortable

Loves the Veloce's fit and comfort over long sessions and found the original S72 rubber amazing on rock and in the gym, now worn down and due for a resole.

“I’m in love with my shoes, I love the way they fit my feet, I love how comfortable they are to use on prolonged time”
positivecomfortablesticky rubber

Found the Veloce very comfy and sensitive when trying it in the store, but the heel didn't match their foot.

mixedcomfortablesensitive

Moved on from the Veloce because it got very soft very quickly and became too soft for crimpy slab footholds.

“I would not recommmend veloce for slab. They get VERY sof VERY quickly.”
mixedwears out fast

Really liked their Veloces but they needed resoling after only five months of climbing.

mixedwears out fast

A V4–V6 indoor boulderer wore their Veloces through a repair until done, but found them too soft for tiny slab footholds, and after a couple of weeks needed socks to stop their heels slipping.

Bought the Veloce as a backup; it fit great in the store, but by the end of the first session it felt sloppy, with air pockets at the heel and under the foot on their long, narrow feet.
