Here's what other sites are saying:

From RockCreek:
"The Rex Shoe by Evolv is a super comfy, supportive approach shoe for light hikes to the crag, scrambling, easy climbing and guiding. Designed to be street savy and trail worthy, the Rex is stylish, hip and also provides the ultimate in friction when out guiding or making that class 4 approach in Tuolumne. Constructed with high friction TRAX rubber outsoles and an edging platform built in, you get confidence in every foot placement you make. Built on a comfortable athletic shoe last with leather uppers and a rubber toe rand, Evolv also added a high quality gel honeycomb insole for even more comfort than ever."

From Backcountry.com:
"The Evolv Men's Rex Approach Shoe includes a full-length EVA midsole for comfort on the hike to the cliff, and the sticky TRAX rubber outsole gets the job done on moderate climbing. Whether you're cruising up a steep alpine ridge or need footwear that can take on a long aid climb, the Rex Approach Shoe has you covered. Evolv added a rubber toe camp to decrease abrasion when you're jugging a pitch, and a flat edging platform helps you crank out a few 5.9 moves between your last piece and the anchor."

Men's Rex
Reviewed by Evan W, Jul 26, 2008

"They smear as well as most climbing shoes and toe in to holds well. Medium width and volume. Tight in the ankle. If you hate having your ankle move around in most shoes then you will love these. Supportive insoles are a great addition.

Your friends will hate you when you send their project in your street shoes."
