Why We Like The Defy Lace Climbing Shoe
When we're ready to take our climbing to the next grade but we're not quite at the down-turned toes stage, we step into the Evolv Defy Lace Climbing Shoe. This plush shoe uses laces, a leather footbed, and a perforated upper to keep us comfortable during long days at the crag.

I absolutely love this shoe. I purchased them specifically for the rock gym. Great grip and extremely comfortable.

I've been climbing for 2 years, and I need new warm up shoes. These are solid shoes for anyone that want a quick warm up on a 5.9 or below or a good shoe for a new climber. The size fits slightly snug based on your shoe size, but feels fine on the wall.

I've been doing indoor bouldering for just under a year, and the Defy Lace is the only shoe I've worn. I like them and they fit well, but I'm looking to upgrade to a higher performance shoe. Which performance model has the most similar fit to these?

I have a wide foot. I usually only wear men’s shoes size 8. Keen and Merrel fit me well. I have done some research and heard Evolv come in wide. I’m pretty sure I want a lace up shoe. I’m a beginner climber. What model would fit best?

I sent an earlier email asking which women's shoe I should buy that most closely matches the Skyhawk. Electra, Defy Lace? I'd also like to know what size I should get if I wore a women's US 9.5 in the Skyhawk. thank you!
