Reviews & Ratings for Evolv Cruzer Approach Shoe - Mens — 46 reviews — Page 1

A size 12 mens medium typically fits me perfectly. These were small and very narrow. I like the design and the weight was perfect. The canvas looked like it would be durable. I'm sad they didn't fit. Next size up was no longer available.

I was hoping to use these for camp/hut/town and break from boots on long hut trips. They are cut very tight - for no socks or thin socks - the intention is scrambling. I'm going to exchange for larger size and have to decide whether going up a half size will do it or up a whole size. They seem well made and design is hip. Just know that they are cut tight/small like a climbing shoe.

It has taken a couple of wearings to break in the canvas, but these are very comfortable now. I sized them normally and found they are smaller than typical shoes - they fit perfectly without socks. Plenty of width up front, no heal slip, split tongue is very comfortable. Would make a great packable travel shoe.

I bought these to replace an old pair of the same shoes. They are super comfy and hold up very well. I wear them before & after climbing, both indoors and out. The men's fit just as well as women's, and the men's 7 corresponds to women's 8/8.5. Great price on CampSaver.

I use this shoe primarily for buildering/urban climbing. It is supportive and functional; it has a clean, crisp edge on the toe and heel and fits well. Not the most comfortable shoe in the world, but the intent is not for comfort but functionality. A good, versatile shoe for casual climbers.

Nice

They fit snug.

I recently used my Cruzers and was generally impressed with the shoes. As advertised, the shoes serve a multi purpose roll as an approach shoe and are stylish enough to wear out on the town with shorts or slacks. On rock, I was particularly impressed with how sticky the soles were. The soles are very sticky and performed excellent on easy 5th class rock. The Cruzers are a minimalist shoe; very light weight but where you save on weight you give up on cushion. They are great going up, especially clipped to a harness, but coming down I feel like my knees took a beating; but that's the trade off. None the less it beats having to walk down in your climbing shoes or lug a bulky pair of approach shoes. I cannot comment on the durability as they are too new but they seem to be well stitched and put together for a canvas shoe. I am very pleased with the shoe and would recommend them to anyone that does long multi pitch with a short approach (less than 2 miles). These are definitely not backpacking shoes unless you are conditioned for long distances in minimalist runners.

I had a great experience

I really enjoyed my experience with campsaver
