What do you think about that?
This is what other customers say:
I have very wide feet and they are slightly different, both pretty square but my right foot is a bit more Grecian with a longer 2nd toe. I have had a nightmare trying to find a pair of shoes that fit, break in pretty easily and have rubber that I like. I have the Evolve Shaman Pro also, they fit well but I find the Trax SAS rubber too hard for indoor (and they take forever to break in).
I am old now and squeezing my feet into a pair of tiny shoes like I used to 20 years ago is neither necessary or good for my aging feet! Gone through a few options, but I like these a lot and that is after 2 sessions :-)
Also, these look like they can be resoled pretty easily (Shamans are not possible at all...). All in all, I am really happy. Good support, snug fit, feel good on edges and sticky enough to smear on.
If you have wide feet that are fairly flat/square, then these are a good option. For size comparison, I wear a UK 11 in the Shaman and found the 10.5 to be a good fit for the Ozone HV. I have a pair of Scarpa Instinct VS-R in an 11 but they just feel a bit floppy and the 10.5 hurts my big toe because of the toe box shape.
Also like the 2 velcro strap system, feels more secure than the Instinct's single strap and the strap on the Shaman is a bit weird and looks like they will not stand the test of time.

Had these for about a month now and used them on indoor walls, up to 7b, and outdoor on nice hot limestone in Greece, up to 7a. Take a little bit getting used to, but they fit well, even with just 2 straps, and is pretty precise and comfortable, even when hot and humid. Rubber sticks and the shape is downturned enough to maintain stability on small edges. Good for toe holds and heel hooks too.
They do get pretty sweaty compared to some other shoes, but that's what boot bananas are for...
Would probably buy them again.

The first vegan friendly bouldering shoe I found with a comfortable wide front foot and toe box, that also fits perfectly at the heel. Definitely recommended.
It's great for small edges and overhangs. The grip of the rubber is average though. Not ideal for slopy footholds.
