Excellent shoes
Review by: kktg5697, 2008-11-06
Very good Shoes, actually, the best pair I've used so far, I highly recommend them if you have a just that bit more to spend, as they excell in sticking to small footholds, great to fitin crags and holes and amazing for edging!
Size wise, you must buy them at least 2 down as sportiva shoes are slightly bigger fitting than other brands (Ive used red chilli but am now a Miura convert).

I just got my first pair a few weeks ago. They are sweet, finaly a shoe where my fingers are the limiting factor. The edgeing is wonderful, the Smearing capability is just under its edgeing performance. when it comed time for a new my next pair of shoes These are going to be 1st on my list of try ons.
Best shoe I've owned

This shoe is super comfy but still performs remarkably. Without doubt the best shoe I've used.
Great shoe

Been wearing this shoe for a couple months and I love it. They have almost molded to my foot. Whenever I drop my heel in they create a suction sound, they fit so good. Break in period sucked, but now they're super comfy. I'm down a size and a half from my normal street shoe. They stretched probably half a size for me. Just don't drag the laces, that's they're only down fall. The lacing system is cool, but the laces don't hold up to being dragged across tons of rock. They edge on everything, smear well after break in, and stick to the rock like suction cups.

This is definately the best shoe ever made. I use these for bouldering but they are very versatile and great sport shoes too. These shoes make jibs seem so much bigger and smearing is amazing. The rubber is ridiculous to say the least. With these shoes, you will never slip or feel uneasy about footing. The sizing was weird for me because I wear a 10.5 street shoe which equates to Euro 43. But for the Miura, I wear a 39.5 which equates to a 7 US sizing. This sounds ridiculous and masichistic, but it's what works for me. He heel is money on anything, I dont even lace them up at all and I have never fallen off a heel or toe hook. The rubber is super durable and very sensitive meaning you can feel anything under your foot. Sportiva craftsmanship and quality can be found in this shoe as there are no signs of wear after a few months of everyday bouldering. I would not reccomend this shoe to a beginner though because you will not maximize the amazing performance and power of this shoe. I have sent numerous v7's and 5.11s (when I climb sport) and I feel like I am not even pulling every last ounce out of the Miuras. I will definately get this shoe again after my present pair burns out, La Sportiva fan for life.
Remember: Size down at least 1 or 2 full sizes, I went down 3.5. Also, before getting your hands on these bad boys consider if you will be maximizing there performance because this shoe is not for the beginner or faint of heart.
