These shoes are great for edging and support your foot well. The toebox is roomy, which gives some relief when sizing tightly. After a few climbs the uppers give very slightly, providing a snug, but not painful fit. The padded upper liner is comfortable. I bought these at my street shoe size and my toes are moderately curled. The heel design is comfortable and was solid on my last bouldering trip. The heel height and angle are high, but it gets more comfortable after breaking-in. It will fit higher volume feet better than narrow, low-volume feet. Mine are toward the narrow end, but the velcro straps cinch up well. Great shoe!

Good Shoe - I just purchased these shoes a week ago and since then I was excited just to get them and take them to a wall. I am very impressed with the stealth onyx rubber, great performance. I ordered them a half size larger then my street shoe, I wear an 11.5 normally. And they are still very snug but still comfortable I expect them to stretch a bit based on other people so far I am completely happy with these shoes. They are very supportive they dont bend easily so if youre a bigger person like me I weigh 205 and am 6 ft tall they are awesome.

Amazing shoe! One of my go-to shoes for bouldering or route climbing. A great option for those who love the Anasazi and love ridiculously sticky rubber. Great for expert and beginners alike.

Phenomenal For Edging - I found these shoes to be great for edging. The Onyx is nice and sticky and the last is nice and supportive. The shoes feel good in the gym but are a little stiff for my taste as far as bouldering and steep are concerned. If you're on vert or tech there is no other choice (aside from the anasazi lace-ups). A great all-around shoe. If you had to choose one shoe for everything this would be the pair. They stretch a bit once broken in so take that into account when sizing. Over all pretty true to size as far as climbing shoes go.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Lace-up Anasazi, Moccasym (way soft-good gym shoe), Anasazi Velcro

Great shoes - Again, the service of Zappos is a 10 out of 10. The shoes are a great option for those who need a sole stiffer than Anasazi, but with a good grip. Considering I've been using Scarpa since this time, I'm very happy with these Five Tens. Maybe they are a little softer, but the sole feels a bit more sticky, so the balance gives a good result. About the size, I read that they don't get as big as others since they are synthetic. However, watch out! They still get a bit bigger. When I bought them, one foot was completely compressed in its shoe, now I feel that I have to tie them to the maximum, otherwise I feel it loose. I would say that they are half number smaller than the Anasazi. The straps let you tie them up fast, easy, and comfortably. Good shoe for wide feet also.

The shoe for heavy climbers. After trying different shoes from different brands, this is definitely the best for big climbers. I'm a bodybuilder so a stiff shoe really helps for climbing. This shoe was the stiffest I found, and fit was very good, though it took me 2 tries to get it right (thanks to Zappos' excellent return policy!). As far a sizing, I had tried various La Sportiva shoes, and for those, a size 9 fit me perfectly. For the Five Tens, I had to go to a size 10 (similar for my Five Ten biking shoes).

Good Shoe - I climb indoors about three days a week 5-6 hours at a time and these shoes are comfortable enough to wear with only a few breaks to let my feet breath. The rubber is very sticky.

Get these shoes - The Galileo offers great performance and great fit. They don't have the scratchy seams of the Anasazi and they mold to the foot very quickly. Also, they can comfortably accommodate an average female foot.

Five Ten Galileo - These are very stiff and supportive. They're great for edging and the stickiness of the Onyx rubber makes them work pretty well for smearing too. The heal fits great with no signs of the air pockets for which the older Anaszis were notorious. They fit me pretty small and I had to go up a half size from my street shoes, but they hold my toes curled just right now.

Great Shoe - Very, very good rubber and a much improved heel for 5-10. Velcro closure is convenient and fast. Just one recommendation...if you are in between sizes go with the bigger of the two since this is an unlined shoe and it will not stretch. I wear 9.5-10.0 street and after suffering with a 9.5 pair for a month finally went to 10.0 and I'm not regretting if for a moment (fit is still fairly aggressive but not ridiculous). Overall great shoe go with street size and go up if in between sizes.

Fit great out of the box, the lining is smooth and comfy - no seams! I bought them curling tight, and they've held their shape quite well. Impressively powerful toes and heels (much better than the Anasazi's which are too bulky and low, in my oppinion). The only issue, which is completely cosmetic, is that these shoes get really dirty looking fast, even gym climbing.
