Kaos II - first shoe review
Very nice looking shoe. Fits really tight. I bought a 12.5 US (46.5), and it fits a bit too tight. My street shoe is 13. The shoe is usable, but a bit cramped in the front. I have semi-flat foot with big, long toes, and it fits perfectly around the balls of my feet toward the heel, but the toes get a bit scrunched. I have used it about six times for indoor climbing and have yet to see any wear and tear, except maybe a little rubber peeling off from sliding against the wall. Besides the cramped portion in the front, works great for first timers in the gym. I tried the evolv defy, and I could not put on any comfortable size. I tried on every available size around my foot and ended up checking out the Kaos II and was impressed with the comfort. So if you don't have big toes or don't mind being a little scrunched in the front, the overall comfort of this shoe is worth it.
