One of the all-time classic shoes, everyone knows the Scarpa Helix. This is the latest incarnation and it remains one of the most popular shoes in Scarpa's line.

The original, classic randing of a flat profile over a relatively symmetrical footprint are all retained. Now more comfort and refinement are built into the shoe than ever before, with the addition of a padded tongue and a heel cup inherited from the more advanced Techno family. To-the-toe lacing improves fit and adjustablity, a must-have if you're having long days at the crag. The Helix upgrade is completed with the addition of Vibram XS Edge rubber.

The Helix also features Passive Randing, which is constructed and tensioned for situations where the primary focus is not dynamic support, but instead – comfort. New climbers developing footwork, professional guides leading all day trips, and long multi-pitch climbing are all examples of where comfort is equally as important and beneficial as performance is.
