Here's a few:
La Sportiva Mirua,Mistral,or Cobra.
Five Ten, Moccasym, Anasazi Velcro, Anasazi Lace Up.
And the Boreal Zen is a pretty nice shoe too.
I have worn them all, my fave's are the Anasazi Lace Up, Moccasym, and the Mirua.

hands down, five-ten anasazi velcro. other than that, the LaSportiva muiras are also awesome and so are the five-ten zlippers, but the zipper will eventualy break on them.

i use a well worn pair of scarpa helix on non challenging problems. for the harder ones i use a really tight pair of 5.10 moccasyms, although heel hooking can be a bit of a bitch in them sometimes..

Surprisingly, my favorite shoe are the 5.10 Ascents; for a few reasons:
1. most bouldering shoes are as comfortable as concrete boots (ascents are so comfortable)
2. they have a little padding under the heel, so landings are much softer
3. they have the best rubber in the world on them (5.10 stealth C4)
they actually work really well, as far a performance is concerned. I boulder up to about V6 and unless you are working some sick-hard project, they will probably be my first choice.
