Climbing Shoes for Roman feet

I have been looking all over for a pair of climbing shoes that fit my feet and have had pretty much no luck. I believe I have what is called a Roman's foot (My first three toes are all basically the same length). Additionally, my foot and heel are narrow and low volume. I have tried most of La Sportiva's line as well as some Scarpa and 5.10 models and have noticed that my big toe is pretty much always flat while my middle toe is basically bent all the way over. Up until now I have gone with shoes that are slightly bigger than ideal so that none of my toes are curled too much but have felt like I have been losing some performance while doing so. I was hoping to find a shoe that fits better so I can get some more performance out of it.

TL;DR: Does anyone know of any performance climbing shoes that are narrow but do not have a pointy toe box?

Five Ten Anasazis.

If I recall, sandals worked well for most romans. 

TIL that there are different kinds of toe patterns around the world:

Also Roman foot. The only 5.10s that fit me are the Anasazis but by golly do they fit like a dream. Specifically new Pinks and Pros. Size at street shoe.

Are the men's Anasazi Pros already pretty narrow or would the women's likely be a better bet?

Holy shit I am Asian. Have you tried cutting some toes down? How about toughening up? Both valid questions.

Interesting.  I guess I’m actually a cross between Roman and Celtic.

The shoe is overall on the narrow side.  The VCS tends to have a higher volume heel whereas the Pink has a pretty narrow heel.

They are exactly the same fit as the Pinks. So fairly narrow through the midfoot and wider at the toebox. On sale at Addidas right now, free 2 day and returns. I really love them.

African here also, like Tenaya right now, although I tried on katana laces and really liked how they felt

Roman foot here also (1st 3 toes of the same length also). I had the 5.10 Anasazis, and maybe it was just the sizing, although it was just a 1/2 size below my street size...but they were terribly uncomfortable. After trying on all the climbing shoes I could find, the la Sportiva Otakis inexplicably were the best (I got theme 2 sizes smaller than my street shoe size). A few months later, I'm still liking them

I learned I have Roman toes today... Interesting because I climb in ansazis, street size, and recently tried otakis while I was getting em resoled. Otakis had some nice added aggressiveness and I also went 2cm below my Mondo size l. I felt it, but w the Velcro I let em breath between pitches and liked the downturn, but it was a tradeoff. Back in the ansazis today post resole and man they felt nice, for just right. Added detail to consider, I also have hammer toes, which can cause their own hotspots. But stretch w a shoe horn/ marble setup to break it in, both Ive found have been good shoes so give em a shot and see what works?

Rock climbing shoes are the interface between you and the rock, and the wrong type of shoe or fit can hold you back. When choosing climbing shoes, there are three primary considerations: Climbing shoe type, Climbing shoe features, Climbing shoe fit. I personally follow many blogs on the given topic, but I think you might like having a read on ​https://perfectshoesforyou.com/best-tennis-shoes-for-flat-feet-and-plantar-fasciitis/​​​ if you ever have the time to spare. Climbing shoes fit differently than any other type of shoes you own. You want them to support your foot, allow lots of sensitivity and stick to surfaces without skidding off.

La Sportiva Solutions fit my roman foot so nicely.  I have a .5 sized up pair for the gym and a tighter pair that i save for outside.  They are both super comfortable.  I am in love.

Others I have tried which are no where near as comfortable.  Butora Acros, Testarosas, TC Pros.  Tarantulace's fit me well but are very low performance.  

My foot for reference: 

Tried the Scarpa Maestro ? It did not fit me because there was to much empty space next to the big toe. (norwegian / egyptian foot)

Solutions actually worked really well for me too, although I had to size VERY aggressively (3 sizes down from street), as the heel/ankle is very wide/high volume, but they’re soft enough to get away with doing this.  Only problem was the pointy toebox makes my toes fold over on top of each other, so not great sensitivity.  For me, Teams are a much better fit for aggressive shoes.

Quite informative. Rock climbing shoes are the interface between you and the rock, and the wrong type of shoe or fit can hold you back.
