I love these! Work great on both steep overhangs and more vertical climbs. The velcro works great to cinch them down tight-- but still allows me to put on/remove without hassle.

It took me a while to find the perfect fit-- I ended up going with 7.5, half a size smaller than my tennis shoe size. They were really tight straight out of the box, but stretch out for a perfect fit after a a couple of wears.

I'm on my third pair of these and, no matter how many other climbing shoes I try on, these continue to be the ones I pull out when I'm really going for a "send."

Though... I have to agree with my fellow reviewers: after being worn for a while, these tend to create a little...er... perfume. ;)
