Velcros are the best climbing shoe there is. This is my second pair and my first ones helped me send the hardest boulder problems and sport routes of any shoe I own. Thier edging ability is simply amazing, I can keep my feet on almost nothing! Similar Products Used: La Sportiva Vipers and Cobras. FiveTen Anasazi Velcros!!! |

These shoes rule. I bought them online and sized them 1/2 size below my street shoe. I have fairly wide feet, and after a few painful gym climbs, they fit great. By far the best climbing shoes I've owned. I'm still pissed in general about how much climbing shoes cost though, and my rating reflects it, though with respect to other shoes, they tend to be a bit more spendy. Similar Products Used: Boreal's (equinox, spirit, stinger), Five ten mesas (too much stretch), EB's. |

The Anasazi's are easily the best shoe that i have ever used. I originally bough them purely for gym use, however have found that they are just as practical for rock. And i love the color!!! Similar Products Used: Boreal Ace, Stingers, and some crappy rentals |

I think the rubber is definetely the best for granite boulders, but regarding the shoe I don't like the heel, and would like that the new model was a little bit softer to feel the rock texture like the Dragon and precise. They suck when climbing on yellow or orange limestone. I've paid them 69 euro. Similar Products Used: -La Sportiva Katana (2 pairs) -Five Ten Dragon -La Sportiva Cobra -Boreal Matrix |

CAN$139. Absolutely the best shoes I ever climbed in. I recommended these shoes to all my friends. Incredible precision, edges very well. Soft enough to be very sensitive with enough supports so that your feet won''t be tired out too quickly. I bought my first pair 1.5 size down. They are super tight, but you get use to them. They don''t stretch a whole lot, maybe a 1/4 size. I bought another pair last week (2 sizes down). Once you are use to the tiny bit of discomfort, you are climbing at the limit of your ability and not your equipment. Definitely for gym, sport climbing and bouldering. No epic multi-pitch with these (at least not the way I liked them fitted). Similar Products Used: Boreal Matrix, Quitzal, Stinger Scarpa Lightning |

None YEAH! These shoes rock my socks., By far the best fitting shoe for my wide feet they fit like a glove. I downsized about 2 sizes from my street shoes, but they have stretched out a little bit. So next time im gona go another half a size smaller. Anyways i think that so far this has to be my favorite pair of shoes, but the mocasyms are also really good. Similar Products Used: lots |

None Absolutely awsome. My feet stick to smears that they really shouldn''t. The shoes, after a brief break-in period, fit like a glove. I climb everything in them, including cracks. The velcro has never been a problem. They have never come undone on a climb, but sure make them easy to get off. I''m sold on five-ten. I''m getting them resoled for the first time and insisted the guy use the same rubber. Similar Products Used: LaSportiva Kaukulator Five-Ten UFO''s |

None Great shoes indeed. This guy at my local climbing gym convinced me to buy these as my first climbing shoe. So I can''t say, like many others have, that it improved my climbing, for I was starting from scratch. But I can say that I have gone through 2 pairs of these shoes and they are incredible. Straight out of the box, the have a nice, pointed toe box that will hold on even the smallest nub of a hold. Break-in time for me took only 3 or 4 boulder sessions. I have worn these on multi-pitch trad routes, and usually start aching around the 3rd pitch. But still, I think it is worth it. I may look into the 5.10 ascents for my next pair of multi-pitch shoes, but as far as bouldering and short routes go, these will forever remain at the top of my list.

None This is one of the best shoes on the market. They can do just about everything right, accept for long trad routes. They edge and smear like a dream and are incredible on overhanging sport routes. The one huge drawback is that they don''t breath very well so its definitely the smelliest shoe that I own. The Tongue is very comfortable and the velcro locks the shoe into place. A GREAT BUY Similar Products Used: La Sportiva Mistral, Boreal Zen |
