I have always struggled to find climbing shoes that fit well. In the past i have used 5.10 anasazis but the remake of these seems to be slightly wider. I've recently tried evolv defy which i like and they are narrow enough but they get holes in the toe much quicker (maybe thats just my climbing style!!)

Any sugestions on a sensitive shoe for a skinny footed person would be appreciated!

In reply to Tom Beaumont:
Montrail used to make rock shoes (up until last year?) which had a good narrow fit. You heat them up in the oven for the first time and it helps moulding to your foot. I have Wassabi (green velcro) and they're perfect for narrower feet - though the velcro was piss and needed replacing. If you come across Montrail I'd recommend trying them. Or maybe trying womens fit boots? Apparently they're generally narrower.

In reply to Tom Beaumont: Have you tried the 5.10 V2 white's? These seem to much closer to the pink anasazis than the new green ones.

I've the same problem and I've had success with Boreal Stingma's.

In reply to Tom Beaumont:

I thought that the white sazis would be fine. Try Evolv Pontas lace ups, they are good, but i find the velcro ones to be too wide.

In reply to Tom Beaumont:

try lace ups, always liked my Aces, and you can leave them unfastened if your not pushing the grade, very versatile.

I've just got some la sportiva katana(sp?) after the same 5:10's. The opposite velcro closure gives a good fit, and it was the comfiest shoe I tried.
