From Sierra Trading Post:
"CLOSEOUTS . Even the smallest jibs and hairline edges seem larger with Montrail's Index rock climbing shoes, featuring the infamous Grypotonite HT sole for ridiculous traction on any surface. PRFRM thermo-moldable foam at the toe and heel for a glove-like fit. Two adjustable touch-fasten straps Dual pull-on loops Suede and synthetic leather uppers Weight: 1 lb. 1 oz. pr. CLOSEOUTS . China. Size Euro (US): 37 (5) 38 (5 ) 38 (6) 39 (6 ) 39 (6 -7) 40 (7) 40 (7 ) 41 (8) 41 (8-8 ) 42 (8 ) 42 (9) 43 (9 ) 43 (9 -10) 44 (10) 44 (10 ) 45 (11) 45 (11 ) Climbing and other related activities are inherently dangerous; anyone purchasing or using equipment for this purpose is personally responsible for getting proper instruction on its correct and safe use."

From Backcountry Outlet:
"The Montrail Index Climbing Shoe's unlined synthetic upper gives you precision feel on the rock without the two-sizes of stretch that you get from all-leather shoes. Two quick straps, and you're in and on your way to sending your next project. If that project happens to be a ten-pitch route, then you'll be stoked on the CTX foam heel. You know how your other climbing shoes rub your Achilles Tendon raw? Well, these shoes don't do that. Oh yeah. Montrail also added ultra-sticky Gryptonite rubber to keep you glued to the dime edges. Hey, comfortable shoes don't do much good if they climb like garbage."

From EMS:
"Designed for climbing all day long, the Index is built for comfort and performance. You won't be desperate to take these off while you're belaying or waiting for your turn. Thermo-moldable areas help with the most difficult component of a rock shoe: perfect fit. Synthetic leather and synthetic compound construction.

Two strap notches let you customize shoe tightness. CTX Thermo-moldable foam under the toes and around the heel for a custom fit. Asymmetric knuckle position for control, comfort, power, and sensitivity. 1.5mm nylon midsole for support and precision footing. On sizing, please note climbing shoe sizes are only a suggestion as fit is highly personal. Foot shape, use, and style all play into size selection."

"Great shoe all around. Really really really good fit. I have a wider foot and the toebox is more comfortable than in any other shoe ive had. The ctx is really nice. The heel cup feels a little wide as well, but has never slipped in a heel hook. The velcro works well, unlike the case of the Wasabi."
