The Scarpa Women’s Helix climbing shoe is a time-tested favorite, blending comfort, versatility, and subtle performance in a design trusted by guides, gym climbers, and outdoor adventurers alike. Constructed on Scarpa’s ED last with a slightly asymmetric profile, the Helix offers a flat-lasted platform for all-day wear, making it ideal for long multi-pitch routes, crack climbing, gym sessions, and new climbers building their technique.

Made with a soft yet supportive 1.8mm suede upper, the Helix molds to the foot over time for a custom fit. The full-length nylon midsole balances flex with structure for edging support, while the Vibram® XS Edge outsole (4mm) provides exceptional grip and durability on a variety of rock types. A padded heel cup and tongue enhance comfort, and the to-the-toe lace-up design gives you dialed-in adjustability for a secure, precise fit from crag to gym.

Whether you're climbing your first routes or leading long days on granite, the Women's Helix is engineered to deliver all-day wearability without sacrificing the performance you need to improve and explore confidently.
