solid
I love these. I’m A beginner/intermediate climber. I bought a different pair that were way to small because everyone told me to size down. I wear a 7.5 and I went ahead and bought these in a 7.5 and I’m happy I did. They are snug, how you want them. But they aren’t so tight that it’s unbearable. In my last shoe, I felt like my toes were going to bash through the front windshield of the shoe everytime I jumped down off the wall. I know people say to size down in climbing shoes but I tried these on in all different sizes and I’m really happy with how they fit, true to size.I also have a narrow heel cup. I tried on many shoes that fit or were terribly snug in the toes but still loose on the heel. These seem to fit my heel well however I do pull the top Velcro strap extra tight to make sure my heel is totally secure. It’s nice that they are adjustable in that way.Also, I just want to emphasize that even though I ordered true to size, the shoes are still quite snug- as all climbing shoes should be. I do give my toes breaks when I’m climbing for a long time and if I go out of town or don’t wear them for a few weeks, it definitely takes some adjustment time to get used to the CRAM. But again, it’s bearable and if I went any bigger my narrow heels would slip and slide around.Overall these are great shoes and I’ve noticed them on a wide range of climbers at the gym, including very experienced people doing very difficult routes.

Perfect fit
I got exactly my number and fits perfctly. Kinda worried that might loosen, so if you want it to be real tight it needs to be half or a number bellow, despite some comments I’ve seen here. Excellent product.

Good shoe not for me
My street size is a 10 and I bought a size down so size 9. I was told they would stretch a lot. After receiving them 9 was way too small and because these shoes barely have any leather and are mostly rubber it was obvious they weren’t gonna stretch much. I would recommend buying only one European size down.The heel is way too bulbous for me and I heard this is a common problem for people so heel hooks are really hard. But maybe if you have a large heel this shoe is for you.Other than that the shoe is made well except for the rubber being kinda slippery as in these shoes aren’t great for smearing.Returning gonna try the scarpa helix.

I love my Kubo’s for bouldering
I love my la sportivas, both my Kubo’s and Finales. Finales are great on slab routes and sport climbing while the Kubo’s are a great moderately aggressive shoe. I primarily use them for bouldering and I love them. I climb around v5 right now and they suit me well! I had scarpa Arpia’s but these are much more comfortable and durable. I won’t go back! Great buy just make sure you know your euro size for the most accurate fit. Additionally I do have pretty narrow feet

Sooo tiny!
These appear to be good quality shoes, but the sizing is bizarre! I know that rock climbing shoes are supposed to fit securely, but I ordered a size 9.5 for myself and my daughter, who is a size 8, couldn’t even force these on her feet. Order way up!

Comfortable and cute!
As soon as I tired these on I knew I was keeping them! They fit like a glove and are the right amount of curl to the toe box. Very versatile in the gym!
