Submited By: Tom Allsop on 24/11/2010 Im now currently wearing in my 4th pair of 'verdes', i can't think of any other shoe i'd consider wearing on gritstone. They work great straight out of the box, the onyxx rubber gives excellent friction and this only improves the more they are worn in.
Sizing - Im a freek with massive size 14 feet, i started in a pair of size 13 anasazis and then decided to go for a pair of 12's, which fit perfectly. The uppers dont so much stretch as they do mould to the shape of your foot, which means i can stay in these for more than three hours at a time without my feet cramping at all - happy times! However, all feet are different so i'd advise trying these shoes on in a different shop before getting back on the computer and giving these lovely people your money instead ;)
If you have wide feet i would suggest trying the velcro's instead, although when your feet get really sweaty and you are using your heel, the heel tends to come away from your foot - this has not yet happened to me with the verde.
Also if you are looking for a shoe for steep limestone sport (i.e the snore) choose the whites instead.
