Funky Fit, but the most capable vertical shoe I've worn, October 24, 2011
I've always loved Sportiva and Scarpa shoes because they fit like a glove, but my feet always hurt in weird places. The Galileo doesn't fit as well, but they climb vertical (Smith Rock) extremely well, I can stand on the smallest, dime edge, foot and forget that I'm standing on such a small hold. I get back to the ground after climbing long techy routes and I'm not even thinking about my feet. These shoes are almost like cheating, I think it has to do with the stiffness. These shoes are certainly stiffer than a lot of other shoes out there (miura, vapor, etc.) but not as much as a super stiff shoe like the Hueco. If you like the Anasazi Velcro then these are the same shoe with a stiffer toe. I highly recommend these to anyone that climbs hard vertical routes.
