User Review: Scarpa Men's Zen

Rating: rated 1.5 of 5 stars

Summary

Highly uncomfortable but durable.

Pros

  • Durability

Cons

  • Uncomfortable
  • Poor edging capabilities

I have these shoes for a couple of years now.

I've used them for long approaches in the mountains and easy climbing. I have a high volume foot and they feel very uncomfortable. Tried them with heel pads, thin shock absorbers, different types of socks, different types of lacing. No comfort improvement.

I feel pressure on the toes after walking for a while and then the discomfort only grows. When I scrambled or climbed easy rock sections I discovered they have no precision for edging. I wouldn't call them technical shoes.

Their only plus seems to be durability.

Not recommendable.
