I have had this shoe for a couple of months now and use them for mostly outdoor bouldering and I absolutely love them. My previous shoe was the la sportiva Oxygen Climbing shoe and even though those are less aggressive then the Mundakas, I found the Mundakas to be much more comfortable. I tend to keep them on between tries on a climb and they only hurt my toes after 20+ mins of non-stop wearing them, which is incredible for a shoe this aggressive.Before buying these shoes I tried on several different pairs from different brands and found that none of them were comfortable or hugged my narrow feet the way these do. The strap can be tedious to undo and redo every time I put on and take off my shoe, but it helps so much to really tighten down the shoe on my foot so ... MoreI have had this shoe for a couple of months now and use them for mostly outdoor bouldering and I absolutely love them.

These required little to no breaking in and I climbing normally in these right out of the box.I would 100% recommend this shoe to people with narrower feet!!

Let me start by saying I really wanted to like these shoes. I've tried a lot of different ones over the years and I normally end up with la sportiva but I got a good deal and I have a narrow foot so I figured I'd try it.On the positive side they break in very easily, downsizing is not a big deal because the shoe is so soft that it forms to your foot very quickly. They are very comfortable out of the box, I size fairly aggressively and even if you go down a couple sizes its still a relatively comfortable break-in period. You feel like you can trust your feet because on how sensitive they are.Now for the negatives - when it came to the fit, the toe box and heel fit snuggly but there was always a dead spot in the mid sole anytime I put pressure on the toe. I found ... MoreLet me start by saying I really wanted to like these shoes.

I found them much more prone to deforming than other slipper style, aggressive shoes I have tried (and I have tried a few). They can be a hassle because of the strap design, it's not exactly intuitive and no matter how I cinched them down that dead space never went away. Speaking of design - they aren't terribly thoughtful about where they stamp rubber on the sole. Sometimes it ends up being right on the edge of the sole which means your edges are jagged out of the box. I could probably get past all that if they didn't begin to delaminate after only 3 weeks. Softer shoes tend to have a shorter lifespan but that's a bit much for the price. I bought these and the la sportiva futuras at the same time, same size. Those shoes are still going strong. These.. well they are now my gym/beater pair.

The Mundakas are an awesome slipper that are really versatile. I've used them on hard slabby stuff, where I really need to feel what's going on under my toes, and also on steeper routes where I need to be able to toe in incut holds. I've climbed several 5.14s in these. They are more sensitive than a shoe like the Iati, so they give you better feel, but aren't going to be as supportive when edging on tiny stuff. That said, I've also crammed my feet into a tighter pair, and those edge well, thanks to the support.

My favorite shoes...incredibly comfortable despite being aggressive. When I first tried them on, I felt they were too soft and it took some getting used to. Now I appreciate the sensitivity. I wear them bouldering and top-roping, and I think they are great for both. I downsized significantly from 7.5-8 street shoe size women's to a men's 6, and it took a few weeks to break them in. I understand these are the widest aggressive Tenayas, but I think they are pretty narrow. I repurchased recently in a men's 6, and the shoes were too big. I hope REI restocks smaller sizes...I guess the shoe has gotten slightly bigger. My broken in size 6 were smaller than the new size 6. Awesome shoe overall! I especially love the lacing system, which people always compliment, since it ... MoreMy favorite shoes...incredibly comfortable despite being aggressive.

First off let me state that I have a tough foot shape to fit for. I have Morton’s toe with a narrow heal but a wide and flat forefoot. These shoes are fairly aggressive but they’re actually more comfortable than any other shoe I’ve worn even neutral beginner shoes.They slip on and fit like a glove and the strap system is excellent. The materials are soft and they conform to your foot so you can fit them as tight or not as you want them and they do not have hotspots or big baggy areas.The rubber is relatively soft and very grippy. Though the toe box does have some stiffness to it but overall they’re more of a sensitive shoe, great for smearing but also don’t leave anything on the table for edging over overhung routes due to the toe box/sole. The sole is split so ... MoreFirst off let me state that I have a tough foot shape to fit for. I have Morton’s toe with a narrow heal but a wide and flat forefoot.

The sole is split so they have a lot of flexibility in the arch.The heel is also great no complaints there, it’s also wrapped over the top with the rand so the heel will not peel off near the ankle like on many shoes.I don’t have a bad thing to say about these, they are just so comfortable and excellent for bouldering. I think they’d be great all around but I mostly boulder and belay indoors in which these are superb for.
These shoes were alright. Most definitely the most comfortable aggressive shoes I’ve tried on, they use a much softer rubber than most aggressive shoes. But, they stink terribly. I’ve never ever had foot odor in my life and am well aware that synthetic materials will stink up much more than natural materials, but Lord did these dank up my feet. I had to buy Dr.Scholls foot odor from target after the third use. Couldn’t even drive my car without the windows all the way down with the wind going inside at 80mph just to get the stench out. I’ll say it again: I have never ever had foot odor. These for real brought something else out of my feet. They’re comfortable, but at what cost???
These shoes are quite honestly the best. I tried them on once upon a time and thought they were super comfortable for an aggressive shoe but ended up going with a La Sportiva model for my first intermediate/advanced shoe. Since graduating from Tarantulaces, I've worn La Sportiva Otakis, Miuras, and Evolv Kronos.My favorite things about the Mundaka: super sensitive, great for overhangs but also a strong performer on more slabby and techy blocs, easy to get on and off, great velcro closure system that is very customizable to your foot, and a very comfortable tongue "sock" that makes my feet and bad ankles feel more supported. I hate stiff, flat soled shoes that don't allow me to feel out my foot placements. I've come to realize I need a very sensitive shoe and the ... MoreThese shoes are quite honestly the best.

They're very grippy and allow for a lot of precision.After a bout an hour at the gym, I do like to slip out of these halfway, but they aren't super uncomfortable like my Otakis and Miuras were. I can wear them pretty much all session and am always happy to strap on and get rocking.I hope they never stop making these shoes. I was lucky to nab them on sale but they are honestly worth every penny of the full $200 price tag.Sizing - I wear a 41.5 in La Sportiva and wear a UK 8 in these. Fit is perfect.
i bought these two months ago, pleased with the performance.pros: pretty, great edging (i mean literally definition of trust your feet), great for heel hooking and surprisingly toe hooks as wellcons: break in period took me a month, heel hurts sometimes,still testing durability though. overall gorgeous shoe, get a ton of questions about them.
These shoes broke in fast and for an aggressive climbing shoe you can wear them for long periods of time without killing your feet.Not a lot of breathability for the feet! These shoes got really stinky really fast, I cleaned them out and still they became smelly almost immediatelyAlso, I'd like to add that these did not last. This is the first time I have strayed from the La Sportiva path and I was disappointed as they only really last around 6 - 8 months before getting full blown holes by my big toes.
Never in my life have I had shoes that reek so horribly. I have played sports all my life, not once have I had shoes that visually make people cringe at the smell. For climbing purposes these shoes are amazing for overhung outdoors and in. Though the synthetic bottoms with glue start to stretch very easily. For gym purposes if you don't mind a repulsive smell these shoes rock. But if these are going to be primarily outdoor shoes, I do not recommend.
