Upgraded to these after my Evolv Defy's were completely thrashed. Immediately provided a huge boost to my climbing. Great, close fit (thanks in part to smart lace-up system) plus nice stiff toe means I can power up tiny footholds that my Defy's would pop right off of. Rubber is nice and sticky, shape of the shoe lends itself to far more technical footwork than before.The price is a bit steep but 100% worth it. We'll see about durability, but so far I'm very pleased with them.

Update: I've been climbing indoors in these hard all winter for about two and a half months now. They still perform great, but definitely due in for a resole. Considering that a.) I'm a fairly new climber with poor footwork and b.) I've been climbing in them 3-4 days a week on an indoor wall, I'm very impressed with the durability!
