I bought some Scarpa Vapour V's the other day and i have climbed in them for three sessions now, but the heel cup at the top is starting to dig in and hurt real bad, shall i try and stretch it or just wait and do a sweaty indoor session and hope they break in properly?

I guess it depends on how bad it is and your heel shape. Mine rubbed a bit when they were new, I just used tape on my heel to stop localised rubbing, now the shoes haven broken in I can wear them for hours. Taking the tape off your heel stings though!

I had the same problem, I just taped the point on the shoe that rubbed, the tape is still there after a years abuse and haven't had any problems with the heal since!

Yeah! In hindsight much more comfortable than tape on skin!

I taped my heel in today's session and it felt so much better thanks, I might tape the show though because taking it off did hurt haha
