my new torture devices
After going through my second pair of La Sportiva Muiras (they lose their shape after the 3rd or 4th resole) I decided to give the new Miura VS a go - tried them on in the same size (40) as my Muiras and - wow! It's like a Muria only better! The toe box seems to have a slightly different shape and my big toe loves it. This is my first go with velcro shoes (I'm a bit traditional... and find the act to tieing shoes before a climb helps me focus so I'll need to adjust my pre-climb routine a bit.) I was hoping to break em in on real rock today but mother nature had other plans. rain rain go away!!!
Update: Seems La Sportiva has noticed how the Muiras age as well - the VS have some design changes to help which is cool cus I was going through one pair of shoes per year.
