La Sportiva Muiru VS or Solutions are brilliant technical shoes, or some Scarpa shoes are okay :) :) :)

HI i love my five ten anasazi velcro they seem to fit my feet and im not even going to try other shoes im just buying same ones again when they
are worn out.
Maybe for long multipitch climbs i would go something more comfortable.

I always get red chiles they are cheap and sticky. Im pretty rough on my shoes and the chiles seem to take it well plus they dont fray like some other brands i bought.

I have two pairs the evolv s are my general comfy shoe for some quick and easy work of things and my favorite pair so far have been the 5.10 5×. The 5.10s have been an awesome shoe and you can never go bad with the stealth c4 rubber.

Not going to recommend a pair, every foot is different. I will recommend a trip to LakesClimber in Ambleside though, the staff there couldn’t do enough for me, really took the time to help fit my shoe … must have tried on about 15 pairs!

this is another late post.
But ive asked around for my shoes and they tell me the exact same answer; It doesnt matter what the rubber is like, the material is flexible enough, its how they feel on your feet.
Best to look around again for a good pair, maybe the old ones are a good fit. Go wit the same make?

This is pretty belated to your post, but in case anyone else checks this out… I have a pair of La Sportiva Barracudas… Best shoes i’ve owned… They have a great edge and hold that edge very well through their duration. Additionally, the heel pocket on these shoes are incredible, it makes heel-hooking a breeze. Because of the rubber/mesh top over the top of the toes, if you need to make a toe hook under a cave or something similar, it makes this move feel much more controlled. My highest regards to these shoes!

I have a pair of Sprotiva Miuras and they are awesome, indoors and out. great lace shoe. I wear a size 11 street but with these I wear down to a size 9, but I like my shoes real tight. I’ve tried Madrock and the rubber is good and sticky but lasts only like 2-3 months. La Sportiva has the best rubber around.

Excellent – thanks, MattJ.

Had a look around, and the Katanas seem to have the best reviews of any. My brother got a pair of Boreal Crux, and hated them, though it does appear that he managed to get a pair of different sized shoes!
