In reply to David Smith:
Hi David,
You have just described my gnarly foot shape with great accuracy. Until recently I favoured Five Ten Galileos but these are discontinued. I am now using Evolv Prime SC's and I am blown away by their edging performance. They are roomy and comfortable - until you stub your toe when the pain is excruciating.
Once worn in they are soft enough to climb a range of rock angles though for out and out smearing I'd choose a Five Ten Anasazi Velcro. I had to buy bigger than my shoe size. I'm a 9 in Galileo, Anasazi and Evolv Bandit but a 10(!) in a Prime SC.
I wasn't at all impressed by the Evolv Bandits - they remained way too stiff throughout their lifespan.
