Love them
I bought them after using Evolv Shakra for three years. They are even better. My regular size is 38, and I wear the same size for Shamans but it took me a while to break them in.

Perfect precision shoes
Great for heel/toe hook and small foot holds, good complement to my Veloce

Women's sizing!
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
Backcountry does not specify that these LV shoes are sized using US women's sizing. It would make more sense for evolv to use European sizing for both MV and LV at this point. I ordered my men's size equivalent and had to return them. Backcountry should indicate that these are women's sizes. I have the last Shaman model and love that shoe, so I imagine these are even better but will update once used.

I love the original low volume shaman from ten years ago (lavender and sea foam with velcro). They are perfect for my heel. Does the current low volume shaman shoe have a similar fit to the older one?

Hello I am currently on old US12 shaman (orange/blue). Overall fit is great but I would love a tighter heel. Which size would you suggest on lv?

A size 11 HV shaman is a nearly perfect fit, but too high volume in the forefoot and heel. What size would I need in the LV shaman to achieve the same size as a men's 11?

I have a pair of the Women's Geshidos and they fit like a dream. My Men's Shamans are way too loose in the heel, making heel-hooking very difficult. Are the LV Shamans going to fit like the Women's Geshidos in terms of the heel fit?

Does a women’s 10,5 fit any different than the men’s shaman 9,5 ? I’ve tried the men’s shaman with straps and it fit in a men’s 9,5 but the women’s shaman with straps in a women’s 10 was very tight

Hi there, I'm a size 40 with the Shakra and it fits me perfectly. Is the Shaman LV sizing the exact same as the Shakra? Should I get size 40 in the Shaman LV?
