Quest

I bought this shoes one month ago. They perform really well and the rubber sticks fine. I wear a 9 1/2 in street shoes and get an 8 in Evolv's. Fine and precise performance in this size but certainly not confortable and not to much flexible. For begginers I recomend a little bigger ones, due precision is not always required for basic moves. Nice shoe overall, the only problem is some weird smell. It is not the typical feet smell, is a different and stronger one that smells like hell.

Realmente son muy buenos, no me molestan para nada y puedo escalar el tiempo que quiera y no siento dolor con ellos puestos, de hecho son muy flexibles y me fije que tienen una gruesa suela y me recomendaron esos aparte de la forma de mi pie, por los duraderos que son.. hasta son los que alquilan en donde entreno... en cierta manera buscaba otro modelo por usar los mismos desde que empece pero en fin, son muy comodos y estoy muy satisfecho por los mismos.

comfort of a mythos with better edging...this shoe kicks ass and evolv is doing something right

I have climbed more 5.12's in these shoes than anything else I own.

If you are unable to make them stick, look at yourself for fault, the shoes are blameless.

I bought this through the local gym. They are comfortable - after a minute or two I forget I am wearing them, which is great for my 14-wide foot. However, the friction is not that great. Smearing is more like sliding. Edging is not that precise. This is basically a gym shoe. I am looking for something else for real rock.
[edit Sept 2005] It seems like the rubber takes a while to break in... the stickiness factor has definately gone up after being used a bit.
I will say again that they are very comfortable, and I wear these on long days.
