fits my narrow heels well. feels great for edging and on volumes

Bought for my teenage son who has narrow heels and complained that his (expensive!) climbing shoes didn’t grip his heel properly and so were inhibiting his climbing. Did much research and found these recommended. First pair came and were slightly too small - he is a 7 in footwear so we normally go down half size in climbing shoes - next pair we ordered were half a size bigger than his normal street shoes and are perfect. The fit is superb and the heel is snug plus they are incredibly well made. I’m really pleased with them. He says they’re ’awesome’ which is fine praise indeed from a teenager!

They are a tight squeeze to put on, but once they are on they feel great. Very secure for heel hooks. The toe box feels very solid with perfect amount of stiffness. The elastic over the top of the foot provides most off the security of the fit, I feel like, as I have to use the straps properly. Maybe the straps are not even necessary but I will have the option if the shoe starts to loosen as it is worn. Highly recommended, I much prefer them to the various pairs of scarpa shoes I’ve used and could never find a comfortable range
