Dragon VCS Climbing Shoe

Definitely size up unless you like painful toes

Great shoe really grippy. I sized up which meant they are a little wide as my feet are narrow but easily adjusted with the 2 Velcro straps which helps a lot compared to other style with just one.

Great Shoes

I mainly use this shoes for indoor bouldering. I wear 9.5 street size shoes, and I got the Dragons at 10 . They were perfect for the first few sessions until the streched out, I wish I had ordered the 9.5 size. Still, great performing shoes for bouldering, the toe and heel hooks are fantastic.

I've been using dragons for years and thought I'd try the Velcro. I prefer the lace-up but these were still great shoes

Perfect

I've used it several times

I really liked them. they are comfortable. I ordered the same size as the street shoe and they fit me super tight.

Super good steep bouldering shoe, also nice for steeper limestone and such.. similar to the lace up, but feels a bit stiffer to me, with a stronger edge. Really easy off n on, and comfy for such a high performance shoe. Great heel hooker, like the lace, without the hassle. Again, microfiber is awesome.

I would buy again

I went a size up, know that my friends who went to same as the shoes size struggled to break them in. Even a size up it was work to break them in. Would if you want comfort maybe two sizes up would be for you.

Excellent product but check the size twice

I love this product, note that it is a quite type of shoe and that you might need to have 1 or 2 sizes bigger than your usual shoes size. I used to wear 43.5 and I was feeling it was way too tight in a 45 1/3, i could barely pass the shoe, 45 2/3 could be okay but I prefer a bit of comfort, so I went for the size 46 !! So just get the size you like the most and you will love it.

I love these bouldering/sport climbing here in SLC and in the gym as well! They really won't stretch once you get them. I am usually an 8.5 street shoe, and got an 8.5 in these as well. They fit tight for sure, but I love the close fit. I feel like I can edge on anything now.

Great

Second pair, love them. Great grip on the toe. Heels spot on and.they are lasting

Good traction - size up!

Great climbing shoes, trusty sticky c4, been out a few times outdoor bouldering with these - definitely too tight for all day wear. Had to keep taking these off between climbs to give my toes a reprieve. Size up at least 1/2 size.
