Evolv Rave Climbing Shoe reviews and deals for sale

Awesome shoe

The sizing goes with street shoe sizing. I wear street US 11 and US 11 in these as well, I do not like to wear tight shoes as well, I prefer a shoe I can stay in for a long period of time at the gym or on multipitches and these were a perfect fit right out of the box, if you want them to be a bit ,ore snug, downsizing a half size would help out. I'm sure these will stretch they… read more feel like they may. So comfy. Great for crack/slab climbing and bouldering. Your feet turn yellow after some sweaty sessions. I use these, TC pros and Butora Altura shoes as my go to outside and inside shoe now and its a perfect quiver for in and outside climbing!

Great slipper for general bouldering

I use these as my general climbing shoes - I boulder indoors and outdoors. I ordered my street shoe size; they were tight at first but not painful, and they loosened up slightly by the end of my first gym session (wore them for 2 straight hours). They're now comfortable and for my level, pretty versatile. The shoe is flat and the toe is pretty round, so I would probably switch them… read more out for steep overhangs. They stain my feet slightly; not as obvious as red Moccs, but it's noticeable. I can't say how much they stretch as I've only worn them a handful of times. I have a slightly wider foot for women's shoes, and found these to be really comfortable. For size comparison, I wear EU 37.5 in Miuras, W 7.5 street shoe.

RAVE Review for Evolv

I've been searching for a training shoe with relatively neutral fit because I have a couple of pairs of bouldering shoes, but the don't allow for long training sessions. I've been curious about slip-on climbing shoes for sometime, and my expectations were pretty low about trying the RAVE. However, I'm very impressed by the support, comfort, sticky rubber, and fit of these slip-ons.… read more The leather upper is very comfortable. The heel is nice a snug. The leather lining allows the fit to stay tight without any edges digging into the achilles. I really like the elastic band at the top of the foot and I hope it stays snug. I chose my street shoe size. Looking forward to see how they stretch. I expect the lateral areas of the foot won't stretch due to the surrounding rubber, but my toe knuckles might stretch the top leather upper over time. Evolv did a good thing here. I recommend these shoes to anyone looking for a supportive training shoe. 3 Month Update: These shoes are still my favorite to climb top rope or lead routes. They are just as comfortable as they were initially with minimal stretch. I’ve worn them almost every session, at least 3 sessions a week for the last 3 months and they are a terrific all around shoe. Bought the new Scarpa vapor lace at the same time and still haven’t worn those but twice.
