Niad VCS Climbing Shoe - Women's

Difficult to find gender of product.

Unclear that the shoes are in women's sizes, would be better if the product clearly displayed this information.

Excellent show for intermediate technical climbing

The break in of this shoe was well worth it! When I first got them they were somewhat painful but I stuck it out and now they are becoming my favorite shoes for climbing. Trustworthy on edges and smearing is not a problem. I’ve used them on sport routes and bouldering. Good all around shoe!

Sizing way too small

The sizes are over 2 sizes too small and I already factored in the gender sizing. How can this be so far off in sizing? Pictured is men's 8 1/2 which fits perfectly and right is 8 1/2 womens. They should be equal in size but at least an inch smaller.

Great shoe, inconsistent sizing.

Love the shoe itself! Seems like there is some quality/sizing control issues. I’ve been getting the same shoe in the same size for years and it works wonderfully for me! They don’t always fit exactly the same but have always been wearable. This go around, the same size was so small that I could barely get my foot inside, and knew no amount of stretching would fix it. Thinking the sizing system changed, I exchanged for half a size bigger…which are now too big and cause my heel to slip.

Love them!

I've used it several times

The shoes are very comfortable. They fit right. I think I could have gone one size down but I am also fine with how they fit for now. They have a great grip so now complains.

Comfy and grippy

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

I recently had an issue with my toe nail and I was looking for a comfy shoe that allowed me to climb without compromising my toe nail again. These shoes are perfect. I ordered my real size but I think I could have go one down. However, I am going to keep them as it is as they are perfect to climb for conditioning.

Definitely yes

Safety first and these shoes are perfect fit light and strong

Favorite climbing shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shoes are super comfortable and I love how the rubber sticks to the wall. I’m an indoor climber and I smear a lot so these are great shoes for me.

Quite confortable and still performant

Low volumen versión, ideal for my feet shape. Quite confortable and as good quality as the old Anasazy with improved heel

Runs small

Sizing runs very small if you want a more neutral fit for all day trad climbing. My street shoe size is 8.5 and I bought a 9, which was my size in the old Anasazi. I can get my foot in the shoe, but my toes are completely curled. I'm going to try going up a full size to a 10.
