La Sportiva Approach Shoes - Superdrago (For Men)

To be fair, this was an online sale and I was unable to try on in the store. The sole rubber is barely sticky (1st time use on sandstone) and sole is very stiff making steep ascents/descents fairly sketchy. I'm a solid woman's US size 6, and can wear Mythos 35.5 all day long with comfort. Pretty disappointed in this La Sportiva product. On the up side - my experience with Sierra Trading Post has been stellar - will definitely shop with them in the future.

Bought these for approaches and walk-offs (rock climbing). Good soles, sturdy enough, but not too heavy. These will require a little break in. I have a wide foot - a bit tight in the forefoot, but I can address that with a different lacing pattern. Overall, I like them fine and they are a good value.

I bought theses shoes to be able to wear all the time and get on an indoor climbing wall without feeling like I'm climbing in street shoes. They accomplish exactly what I was looking for and make my life so much easier. I don't have to spend all day in my climbing shoes anymore. I'd give it a 5 if the shoe wasn't too small. Would have gone bigger if I knew they weren't true to size.

I use these around town, biking and for occasional light hiking or approach. They're comfortable and fit well.

Sending them back as they are way too small for american sizing

This shoes can handle well on rocks and trails. It is bit narrow and tight fit on toe, like a climbing shoe. Also, La Sportiva does European sizing that seems to run half size smaller than U.S. sizing chart. Overall the shoes get soft and flexible quickly. There is no arch support on this shoes and need to replace insole with superfeet or other products . I like this shoes and La Sportiva Cinque but both are about half size small. If you want to have all day comfort, I would use Five ten guide tennie and similar hiking/approach shoes that are slightly bigger size than this shoes.
