Why We Like The Evolv V6 Climbing Shoe
The Evolv V6 Climbing Shoe can do it all. The midsole's Love Bump construction eliminates dead space under our toes for a performance fit that doesn't require an ultra-tight heel cup, while the tensioned heel rand gives us confidence-boosting security on aggressive heel hooks. Wrapped with full-length Trax SAS rubber, this pair delivers max friction on rock and plastic and in both warm and cold temps for reliable performance wherever and whenever we send, and its medium stiffness offers support on edging and flexibility on smears.

Great fitting versatile shoe
Bought a pair about 13 months ago. I've climbed the life out of them and have just replaced them with another pair. Super shoe.

Excellent shoes for climbers with large feet
Really loving these. I’m 6’5” and have a larger foot size (34/14) and soft soled shoes like the Zenist or LS Solutions just don't provide enough support for me, they place an excessive amount of stress on the arch of my foot and my feet quickly end up fatigued. The V6s are a the exact opposite. I feel full supported, they can edge on a dime and have taken my toe hook game to a whole new level. If you’re a larger foot/heavier climber, these give you the foot support you need.

Great shoe
This shoe doesnt dissapoint! I used them for trad, multipitch, hard sport climbing and bouldering and it feels great. Love the flex of the sole, not too stiff, not too soft. After years of tight 2,5 downsized skwamas, i bought these 0.5/1 size above my street shoe size and it performs just the same way. A bit more down turn would be nice tho

Is the heel the higher style of the Shaman Pro or the lower style of the Shaman/Geshido/Zenist (these are lower on the Achilles)?
