FS/trade Evolv Astromans size 11
« on: December 09, 2015, 03:29:50 PM »
European size 44.5. I made the foolish decision to order shoes without trying on the exact model. Way too small to hope for sufficient stretching. Fwiw I wear 10.5 wide in street, 43 in La Sportivas.

Worn up <200' of plastic and on half a V2 at Castle Rock.

$70, or something of comparable entertainment value? Wall hammer, etriers, ice axe, ~55L pack, pro...



Still have a nice sharp edge.

F4?

Too bad not smaller or Squiddo would swipe them up.

Mr Mud might fit them. They are 2x Lefts...right?

I got a pair and they are good shoes.  I wear 10 in street shoes and in the astroman a 9.5 works for me. I could see if you had a wide foot that they might not work for you. I feel like they are closer to sportivas and might fit folks with a narrow foot well.  Kind of cool just to have pair cause Croft designed them.

Tempting, but I would have to try. Currently have my eyes on the Tc pro.

Wouldn't they work better on your feet? :)

do not know.  I tried on the TCPro and liked it.  Sportiva has traditionally fit my feet well.  I mostly climbed in 5.10s because I like their rubber.

44.5 is my size. I'll be 69 on my next birthday, so that's my offer - $69.

I've got a pair of US 12's for sale. 1 pitch climbed in them.

If you're interested.

Maybe a trade. They're too big for me.

Sorry I've been so appallingly negligent about monitoring this thread. Holidays were a bad time to post it up. 

mynameismud, you expressed some interest first. Are you interested in trying them on, or sticking with the plan for TC Pros?

I am a bit interested but I am concerned they will be to big.  I wear a size 11 to 11.5 street shoe and usually wear size 9.5 climbing shoes.  I have heard that these run closer to street shoe size.  If we were both in the Pins I would be interested in trying them on.  But if you have an opportunity to sell them I would.

I have a brand new pair of La Sportiva Nagos size 44 that I can't give away.
Maybe we should all get together at Master's of Mud and have a pity party.
At least we should be able to have a fire this year while we wallow in the mud.

Sounds good. If they're still available and our schedules overlap I'll bring them.

In the meantime, waldo, you drive a hard bargain, but I guess I could cut you a deal.  ;)  Still interested in them?

Bump for Waldo. Or should kylequeener and I try on each other's shoes?

I haven't been monitoring communications as I should, either. Apologies! I ordered a pair of Mythos from Larry at the end of summer and they just showed up on my doorstep. I'll retract my offer and hope you'll pardon my indiscretion.

No worries, I'm not in a critical rush to unload them. Thanks for letting me know.  :)

kylequeener, still interested in seeing if a straight swap will get us both a pair of wearable shoes?
