Tried these on and really liked them. My anasazi velcros blew out recently and looking to replace them. How do these shoes perform on steep and overhanging routes? Are they agressive enough?

These are a very aggressive shoe, with a very down-turned toe for excellent performance on steep and overhanging routes. This shoe is probably best for bouldering and sport climbing, as it wouldn't be comfortable enough (for me) to be an all day affair. Of course, the level of aggressive vs. comfortable also depends on how the shoe is sized.
