Runs small due to aggressive downturn. Consider going up 0.5–1 EU from your normal size. Women size up 1.5 from men's US sizing.
Why the PR23?
When the hold is small and the move is hard, you need a shoe that doesn't negotiate. The PR23's aggressive downturn puts your toe in the right position for overhangs and pockets. The dual velcro closure locks your foot in place between problems without the faff of laces. The high-friction rubber reads the hold before you commit. This is the shoe for climbers who've stopped projecting and started sending. One standard. Every send.
