Here's what other sites are saying:
From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. La Sportiva Men's Miura Shoe (Spring 2008) The Men's Miura Shoe by La Sportiva is a high performance shoe for edging control and pocket climbing performance. Features:Slingshot rand connected to the Powerhinge under the shoe to keep you on edges Speed lacing system for quick lace-ups 8 panel directional lining for channeling stretch Weight: 7 oz / 234 g Upper: Leather Construction: Slip Lasted Last: PD75 Lining: Dentex Sole: 4mm Vibram XS Grip Midsole: 1.1mm Laspoflex (forefoot only)"
From Backcountry.com:
"The super-aggressive La Sportive Miura Rock Climbing Shoe provides the edge you need to send highly technical sport routes and boulder problems. Ultra-sticky Vibram XSV rubber, precision edging performance, and a down-turned toe for superior friction make the Miura the La Sportiva's best-selling high-performance shoe. Dentex lining reduces stretch in these slip-lasted leather shoes climb in them right out of the box without a painful break-in period. When tiny edges and overhanging sickness is the name of the game, the La Sportiva Miura is the shoe."
From Altrec Outdoors:
"The sun will always rise in the east and the Miura will always be there to catch the first rays. Or at least as long as La Sportiva keeps making one of the best climbing shoes in the business. The La Sportiva Miura is the ultimate fusion of edging precision and comfort, but if you liked this big wall shoe for everything that it did before, you're going to love the new sensitivity. La Sportiva narrowed the Laspoflex midsole in the forefoot from 1.8 mm. all the way down to 1.1 mm. for almost double the tactile feedback. Feeling is believing, but you'll love the additional confidence. Just like earlier incarnations, this Miura features a quality 4-mm. XSV Vibram sole that delivers superb friction without accelerated wear, which in turn can save your upper body muscles a little energy. One thing to remember about La Sportiva is that the lasts run a little narrower than other climbing brands, so keep this in mind when you're choosing your shoe."
From REI:
"The Muiras provide the ultimate solution to the extreme requirements of modern climbing: friction, sensitivity, and precision with a comfortable fit. Speed lacing system for a quick and precise fit. The Muiras are very aggressive and extremely effective on small edges and in pockets. The 4mm Vibram XS Grip® soles supply incredible friction and resistance to wear."

My first pair of climbing shoes was the Red Chili X Cube which had a heel that fitted me quite nicely but the shoe was 1-2 sizes too big. I later tried a Chilis again but super tight and due to the arch in your foot, the heel wasn't as effective anymore."
