Evolve's Bandit climbing shoe is the perfect specimen as a multi-purpose performance lace-up shoe that allows you to excel at micro-edging, smearing, and crack climbing. The full length speed-lacing design provides a precision molded fit with a quick pull of the laces. The integrity webs on the side provide better lateral support and a consistent non-stretch fit over time and the microfiber lining provides a comfortable feel and proves that performance shoes can feel great to climb in.
The teardrop shaped MX-2 stiff half midsole adds edging power without sacrificing flexibility in the midsection. This is the ideal lace-up performance shoe for intermediate to advanced climbers who like precision edging power.

What bang for the buck! This shoe is cheap, but not on quality. Sticks well, smears good, toe box is nice, and heels are bomber!

Comments about Evolv Bandit Climbing Shoe:
I personally love this shoe, I use it mainly indoors because its been super cold out, had them since Novemberish. Although I have been outdoors in these some. They have an amazing fit that can be fully adjustable to your preference and comfort. I can wear them for hours without feeling like I need to take them off and they smear very well. Just all around great shoe, especially for the price. Just try a pair on. [thumbs up]

Comments about Evolv Bandit Climbing Shoe:
My last shoes were evolve defy's and I really liked them. After awhile as I got a little better I wanted a little stiffer shoe and these have been solid so far.

Comments about Evolv Bandit Climbing Shoe:
I use these shoes mainly for bouldering and indoor climbing, but can't wait to get them out onto a rock. These shoes fit great to street shoe size, and have stretched just a tiny bit to make my feet very snug and comfy. They're very tight on the toes, which I like, but after about an hour or so I have to take them off to wake my feet up again.

Comments about Evolv Bandit Climbing Shoe:
i climb a lot indoors and only occasionally outdoors but these have done great bouldering indoors. the toe is aggressive enough for for some holes and cracks but they also allow me to smear it up. i am definitely happy with these shoes as these are the first ones i have purchased my first pair were hand me downs. i would recommend these. also i went to the rockcreek by greenlife and the staff there was super helpful, knowledgeable and nice. nathan did a good job helping me out and you guys matched the internet price. thanks for a positive buying experience.

I am just starting out and this is the first pair of climbing shoes I've ever owned. I think they are great but I don't have any other shoe to compare them to.

Comments about Evolv Bandit Climbing Shoe:
I have only been indoor climbing with this shoe so far, but I can't wait to get it outdoors. I switched from a pair of 5.10 coyote's. Initially I was scared to step away from the 5.10 rubber, but this shoe has exceeded expectations and the rubber is just as good if not better than the stealth c4 rubber. For me they are just a touch uncomfortable but I wanted to make sure that they were snug because my 5.10's were a little too big. These shoes work great for me smearing and edging, and I like the snugness. I wear a 12 in a New Balance sneaker and I ordered a 12 and it's great. I feel confident on tiny holds and I can't wait to get them in a crack. I have only climbed in them twice and I can already see an improvement. This is a great shoe.
