Love this shoe. It's easy to get in and out of, which makes it a great gym shoe. Because it's not as down-turned as some other shoes, this shoe is more comfortable, although that comes at a price of inverted or overhanging performance. Still this shoe is a great upgrade from a basic climbing shoe and one should enjoy the comfort if they are not pushing the envelope yet. Oh and did I mention the price... you can't beat the price. 5 stars for Giantnerd on the price.

Sheryl,
you want this shoe to fit very snug! No larger than a 43 for size 10 street shoe.

I am assuming that women can wear these shoes as well, even though they are marked as being "Men's?" Does LaSportiva sell women's specific climbing shoes or are they all gender neutral?

Yes, Women can and do wear the shoe all the time. Just make sure you purchase the right size. IMHO La Sportiva shoes run a little bigger than other brands, such as Evolv.

I believe the only major difference between the men's and women's shoe is the color pattern (yellow & black vs. baby blue and black)
