The Five Ten Anasazi VCS Climbing Shoe is perhaps the most adept all-around climbing shoe ever made, which is likely the reason it's also the best selling performance shoe ever made. The medium-stiff midsole combines with the stealth Onyxx rubber for lethal edging ability while the dual hook-and-loop straps make on and off an easy operation.

I bought these for my boyfriend who recently got into climbing at our local gym and he loves them! He says that they are comfortable to climb in. They do fit on the smaller side as he had to return the original pair he got in his street size for two sizes up.

They are really enjoying this shoe as it is great for all around climbing and comfort without skimping on effectiveness. They are a larger guy with wide feet, and have had trouble finding a shoe that fits well.

I have gotten these shoes countless times over the years and even though they have made a lot of minor changes here and there, they are only better every time and the fit always stays the same. Even though I sometimes switch to a different shoe I keep returning the the tried and true.

This shoe is amazing! For the longest time I have been searching for a comfortable yet high end climbing shoe that slays any and every wall, and I think this shoe would be it! The leather top and sides give this shoe the flexibility to fit on my foot well (I wear a size 13 and ordered a 13). The first couple uses of the shoe they were uncomfortably tight, but have started to stretch and mold after four or five trips to the gym. Overall, and awesome shoe that does everything I need it to do and more!

I've tried all the aggressive shoes I care to before this. I have really flat feet: this in blue is the best shoe I've used so far.

This is my first pair of climbing shoes so I don't have a lot to compare to except rental shoes. I purchase a size larger than my normal shoe and they're perfect - but that's a personal preference. They looked super purple in the picture but they are much bluer than it shoes. They feel super study and so far work great!

I absolutely love these shoes. They are my everyday climbing shoe that are next level when it comes to comfort. This was my 4th pair of shoes and I'll always own a pair. They are are great for craggin around, long multi pitch, technical slab, and I really like them for crack. I wear them in the gym and boulder in them, but just upgraded to a more aggressive shoe (the arrowhead) for steeper climbs and delicate foot work. True to size. I'm an 11.5 street shoe, and the 11.5 fit like a glove. They start to get a little painful after wearing them for long multipitch climbs with hanging belays so I try and take them off while belaying.

I recently moved from my laced version to these. They're sticky, the fit is great, and they're not nearly as purple as the picture looks.

It's my first climbing shoes, and I love it. It fits true to size. I usually wear 9.5 or 10 at street shoes and bought the 9.5

Fantastic shoes! The rubber and toebox really let you feel secure on even the smallest chips. I bought these and sent my first 5.10 the first day I used them.

These are my first pair of climbing shoes and I couldn't be happier. I've been hitting the climbing gym 2-3 times a week and have found these shoes to be great for a relative beginner like myself. Above all these shoes give me a confidence in the stick of my foot when trying to advance as a climber. The fit of these is great, I purchased the same size as I wear in a casual shoe, haven't had any problem with sizing at all. I had used these shoes once outside before purchasing, and since then have only been inside at the gym but will be moving outdoors shortly.

I switched to these shoes from the La Sportiva Miura and like them quite a bit more. They are durable, have great grip, and are comfortable. I use them all the time both indoors and outdoors (bouldering and sport climbing). I haven't tried any long multi-pitch routes in them yet but I certainly wouldn't hesitate to take them on a longer climb. I've had them for around a year now using them roughly once a week. I've used them on steep overhanging routes and longer slab routes and they've been great on both. Love this shoe!

If you're looking at the color options for the Anasazi, just a heads up that there are more differences between the Gold and Blue than just color. Golden Tan uses Onyxx, while Blue uses C4. As a result, you lose a little bit of edging power and heel tension with the Blue Anasazi, while gaining a bit more friction for smears. You can't go wrong with either.

After 2 months of climbing 4-5 times a week, these shoes were well worth it. Great for edging and the magical five ten rubber makes it great on nasty smears too. I dont see these wearing out soon but when they do ill definitely buy another pair.

These are so great that I just keep buying these after my old pair wears out. great gym and climbing outside. 5.10 has great sticky rubber that can hold up for a long time. Love these!

These are the best shoes I have ever owned! I have climbed, on a variety of rock and they have handled steep, slab, edges, pockets, cracks and more. I've climbed big walls, cragged, bouldered and this has been the most versatile shoe i have ever owned. I wish they would go back to the old, heel, but still love the shoe.

I have had several pairs of the Anasazi's and they along with my TC Pro's are my go-to shoes. The Anasazi have a great fit, hugging your feet whilst still being comfortable all day. I also love the 5.10 stealth which keeps you glued to the rock. My only complaint is that the area around the toe box tends to wear out quickly but they are still an awesome shoe that I highly recommend.

Used a couple times indoors so far, stiff and edge really well. I wear a size 10.5-11, one foot is a little longer, street shoe and sized these at a 10. They are pretty comfortable out of the box, but don't feel like they will stretch much. I tried a 9.5 and couldn't get it on my foot.

This shoe can do anything. Great shoe for anything from all day multi -pitch climbing to bouldering. Extremely durable thick soled shoe that lasts. The shoe does fit very true to size but it does take awhile for it to break in. When they do break in, you will love everything about this shoe for a all around moderate shoe. I have used this shoe in a lot of different environments from indoor gym climbing, slab climbing, sport and even crack climbing at Indian Creek. Best shoe I have owned.
