By skiflake from fort collins, CO on 09/16/2008 Pros: Lightweight, Versatile Best Uses: Bouldering, Indoor, Outdoor Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels half size too small Width: Feels true to width Comments: I had to order a half size larger in the Wasabi's than in my other montrail shoes, just FYI. other than that they look like great shoes. mostly just wanted to let you know about the sizing, order up.
I would buy this product again and again By HeMas from HELLsinki on 08/11/2008 Pros: Lightweight, Versatile, Weather Resistant Best Uses: Bouldering, Outdoor, Sprint Climbs Describe Yourself: Avid Climber Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The last is pretty spot on, but the agressive downturn means that these are not the best shoe for long climbs... they might break into more comfortable, but after a few sessions, this has not happened. But it ain't really the reason I got these. The synthetic uppers means little to no strech.
only major con I can think of these shoes is the fact that the rubber Montrail uses doesn't seem to like to be resoled (tried Stealth, Vibram and MadRubber)... but at this price, who's complaining.
Fits like a k10, not sportiva By Yetinsyny from Santa Clara, CA on 07/01/2008 Pros: Lightweight, Perfectly snug, Rugged Cons: Not a good crack shoe Describe Yourself: Avid Climber Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I got it in the 41.5 at first (my sportiva size). Ended up at 43 with a perfect fit. No inside slipping; the shoe stays put to the point where you don't think about it. But no pinch or pain, well designed to hold tight. And the rubber is as good as any I've tried.
So far just bouldering with it; Don't think I'll try cracking as the buckles go too far down the front.
It isn't a stiff shoe, but neither a slipper. Sits inbetween, which is perfect for me (comfort yet supportive of my permanently broken toe)
By MoFo Phil from Paris of America on 06/19/2008 Best Uses: Bouldering, Indoor Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These shoes have good grip on small foot holds and are relatively comfortable for climbing shoes
By April Fool from Australia on 06/11/2008 Pros: Lightweight, Versatile, Very good smearing shoes Best Uses: Bouldering, Indoor Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have had many pairs of climbing shoes, none this comfortable and smears so well on the wall. I am extremely pleased with them.
I wear 36.5 for street shoes, 38 in these fit me perfectly (but we all know how street shoes size doesn't translate into climbing shoes size).
By Danny Boy from Tallahassee, FL on 06/05/2008 Best Uses: Bouldering, Outdoor Describe Yourself: Avid Climber Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a great shoe to get in and out of, the fit is pretty good despite being narrower than some Montrails I've had in the past. They are more breathable than the all leather shoes, and the rubber is already scuffed making the slippy time when you first get them not as bad.
By wildweasel from NH on 04/27/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Versatile, Weather Resistant Best Uses: Bouldering, Indoor, Outdoor Describe Yourself: Getting Started Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: sweet shoe that really performs on hard problems
