A great harness
Review by: gblauer, 2011-04-23
I have spent plenty of time hanging in this harness and found it to be rather comfortable. Leaverbiner wrote this review in 2004, I suspect that Metolius has iterated several times on the harness since them. Overall, it's a great harness, I am on my second one...I wore through the tie in points on my first one.

I love this chalk, not only does is it have a great texture, it smells great and I have been climbing really well since I started "using". The aromatherapy seems to calm me as I climb.
It is sold in 2 oz and 4 oz packages. It sells out so fast at my gym that whenever it comes in I usually buy the lot (leaving one or two behind)!
I tried making my own, but it didn't compare to Zen Lizard's creation.
I highly recommend this great chalk.

The fit on this shoe is terrific. It is designed for women so you really have a snug fit. What I don't like is the lack of sensitivity. The sole (at the toes) is simply too thick. I loved my anasazi lace ups for their sensitivity, alas the fit is unisex and hence too big for my heel.
Now, if Evolv could put a little less rubber on the sole, make them slighly more sensitive I would be dancing for joy.
All said and done, I really like the shoe, I am forcing myself to wear them every time I climb. I am getting used to them and am constantly (pleasantly) surprised at what I can do while wearing them.
