Shoes review: awesome shoes! on the small side so tighter than similar shoes of the same labelled size, be aware of that. The rubber creeps up over the big toe to provide some support/stick/protection for toe hooks, but if you're a toe hook kinda gal/guy it may not be enough for you. Sick shoes.
Site review: banana fingers are great. after much searching these guys had the best price, had the free delivery and delivered super quickly. Muchos gracias!

I was gifted a pair of 5:10 Dragons from a friend - I played guitar at his wedding and received them as a surprise thank you a while later (I would have done it for nothing, big lad). However, I have big feet, closer to a size thirteen than a size twelve and the Dragons took the snug fit approach into the realms of unusable - certainly as an all-day shoe (but they were undeniably cool, though). Here's where the good folk at Banana Fingers score. They took on board the information, asked about the sort of climbing I do regularly (bouldering, mainly), the grade range, climbing style, and my current shoes and suggested a range of options and sizes - of which the Anasazi was one. They then exchanged the shoes, and when there was a snafu and the order was delayed, threw in a bouldering brush. Shoes arrived, the fit was bang on the money - getting my toes right up into a good position, a strong midsole and no dead space in the heel - and I'm looking forward to giving them the beans.

Excellent climbing shoe! It's my absolute favorite climbing shoes because of the not too pointed tip and the amazing grip.

Got these for free winning a comp, brilliantly sticky heel and fits my foot like a glove, I got a Uk 7 and my street size is 7 aswell however i have katana's in size 6 so i thought a larger shoe for longer climbs would be convenient. I reccomend the shoe, amazing grippy rubber lasts forever, if i were you id choose katana's or these.

This is a great shoe , if you want something that ticks most of the boxes this is the one , a bread and butter shoe .
I'm not sure if there is a shoe out there that can cover every aspect perfectly ( if there is please let me know ) . This shoe edges very well , is more than fine on a overhang ( there are more aggressive shoes that are better though ) , and i'm no slab climber but these shoes will get you up one . The valcro system is as handy as it gets ( fast on and off , which is handy when there ultra tight ) . The heal is not a perferct fit for me but that kind of suits , as there is a bit of space in there to take the sting out of heal hooks ...
They are well made and last the distance , i climb 5-6 days a week indoors and out , and they just don't seem to wear out . They will stretch a little over five or so decent sessions ( get comfy ish ) , and after a few ( 4 or 5 ) hard months will stretch a little more ( get a little loose ) but this is to be expected ...
Fit ... 5.10's tend to be a lot tighter fitting than European made shoes , so perhaps try before you buy if you are not used to the 5.10 sizing . You do want them tight though right !
So to sum up a great all round , convenient shoe for training and most sends . I use the Verde's when i need something slighly better/tighter ( laces ) , but i hate having to do up laces every 5 miutes , and save them for when there needed . If you are new to climbing these shoes can do you no wrong , and will get you standing on some small stuff . They will last you as you progress and it will take a long time if ever before you out grow there capabilities ... anyway Blah Blah Blah

damn good shoe. only complaint is they have streached a bit, but they are coming to the end of their life.
