Does anyone know how the sizing of these shoes compares to other Evolv models?
For instance, I currently climb with the Evolv Defy in size 9.
Should the Optimus Prime in 9 fit the same?

They will be a little tighter....the primes are designed with performance in mind so they are scaled down to size so that with your normal size they will be tight....

I have to say mine was a bit different because of the downturn on the optimus. I have 42.5 in the Defy, and had to size up to 43.5 in the optimus to get the same fit. I will add they feel amazing and the two pairs make a good selection for steep/overhanging and moderate/steep climbing

It will fit about the same. The toe box on the Optimus Prime is pretty blocky, not like the Defy that has a pointy toe. Otherwise it should fit the same, maybe a little snug because it is downturned.
