These shoes are alright. Theyre not agro in any way but are really comfortable. I wouldnt really buy them over the pontas or the primes or the predators. theyre not bad but honestly, there are better shoes out there. the toe felt too round to me. I like a more pointed toe but you can still use these on small jibs and pebbles.

This is one of the most comfortable shoes I have yet worn, and it climbs great. I never thought a velcro shoe would be my favorite all-around shoe. The only climbing this doesn't do well on is steep climbing because it isn't downturned, but for the vertical stuff it is wonderful. You can stand on micro-edges, shove into cracks and pockets, heel hook (the heel fits perfectly for bot me size 46 and my wife size 38).

To size these go about one full size up from your Sportiva size, I wear a 45 in a miura and a 46 fits perfect. My wife wears her actual street shoe size in this, but she really doesn't like tight shoes.
