Product description
Versatile bouldering shoes for advanced climbers
The V6 from Evolv are perfect for anyone looking for the most versatile bouldering shoes possible that are also powerful enough to tackle their first difficult problems. These shoes boast a wide fit and are therefore particularly suitable for wide feet.
Comfort and performance
The V6 are very well-balanced bouldering shoes with which you can easily climb slabs, verticals and overhangs. They are characterised by their relatively soft construction with a medium downturn and moderate asymmetry. Plus, they also feature a large toe cap that makes it easier to perform toe hooks. In addition, the one-piece sole construction offers fantastic grip. The simple hook-and-loop fasteners are particularly durable and enable quick and comfortable adjustment.
These are the perfect training shoes for all those who want to improve step by step so that they can soon master the really tough routes.

I have had the V6 now for almost half a year mainly doing indoor bouldering with the occasional top rope session.
After a rough few sessions to break them in they started to become rather comfortable and the split tongue with the adjustable strap make the shoes really well fitting which is great even for people with a low instep.
The shoe performed well on every kind of terrain. Great allrounder shoe.
The only thing I personally disliked was the heel as there was still a little bit of air on the inside of my heels, but after I having tried on other evolv shoes this is just a common theme for me personally.
In conclusion I could recommend these shoes for anyone who is looking for an intermediate shoe that can do it all from slab to overhang and who does not want to have their toes crushed. The only true disadvantage is the smell after some time, so taking care of that from the beginning is truly important.
