Jet 7 vs. Muria VS
Im looking for a bit of a comparison of these 2 shoes. I will be going to a shop for test fit of the Muira, and am currently in the Jet 7 so Im not concerned about sizing them, I just want a performance review.
Cheers guys.

The Muira has a much stiffer sole and thus is better for edging and longer sport routes. The Jet, as you know, fits a bit funny in the heel - you're either locked in perfectly or it feels weird depending on your foot. The Muira feels much lower profile to me. If I was only bouldering I'd go for the jet but the little hooky toe on the Muira is so very nice for grabbing pockets and the overall stiffness for edging means I like the Muira better. I've yet to find the boulder problem that the Muira can't handle (I'm sure it exists but not in my realm of possibilities), so for me it's the Muira. I also feel like the closure on the Muira allows for a bit more adjustability.
