Best shoes I have in last three years. Precise, but comfy, improved a lot my climbing. As is said, shoes make a diff - well, yes they do. Sometimes I use my old 'other companies' pairs and is an obvious difference.
I would recommend them anytime for sport and boulder.Rubber is same as on Sportivas and fit is somehow tighter; I wear 10 1/2 street and buy Instinct at 41 1/2.
