Evolv Shaman Review

The Shaman, designed in partnership with one of the biggest names in the climbing shoe world – the legendary Chris Sharma. These Evolv shoes are a regular sight at bouldering gyms across the world. The Shaman isn’t exactly a new shoe though, with the first edition hitting the shelves in 2011. With the shoe’s continued success as one of Evolv’s most popular models, the shoe got an upgrade in 2016. Improvements include; a new color scheme, a better fitting (non-achilles crushing) heel, a bigger toe rand and more space between the velcro straps and the tip to improve your toe hooking game. The new version of the Shaman are also made from vegan-friendly materials.
