One of the more comfortable shoes on the market. I've used tenaya oasi for 3/4 years now, its the only shoe that fits my small heels. Build quality is very good, never had my toe hook rubber delaminate unlile people who use other shoes. I've used this shoe for 3 resoles, after which i purchased the high volume oasi (heel volume seems to be unaffected by lv/hv). I finally retired it after my 3rd resole where the inner heel fabric was coming apart. Never had this happen to my later shoes so maybe it was bad heel hook technique that caused it.
Ultra soft shoe, which also means it wears more quickly.(Last 2/3 months for me climbing 3/4x a week. Im probably on the wall 2x as much as most people so normal people can expect 6 months of use from regular climbing)
Shoe edges okay, but you need stronger feet. The edge wears out by the 3rd session.
Overall: i recommend, high performance shoe which is rhe only one that fits me. Very comfortable as well
