They might not fit correctly for someone that has a very wide foot. I have almost no arch and they feel good. Some of the shoes designed for high arches are not comfortable for me. They soak up water like a sponge but dry quickly. Decent rock protection and the soles will outlast the upper.

narrow fit, great traction, i've taken mine through several canyons is southern utah and they preform flawlessly. they dry quick but the soles will wear quicker then a normal sole. great support, i trail run in them as well.

I can't answer all your questions, but I know that the sole will last for ages (I have two pairs of Sportiva shoes, been wearing them for two years, and you can hardly see any wear) and they're excellent for 3rd/4th class scrambling. Someone else is going to have to take your other questions.
