Has climbed in Dragos for a while and loves them for bouldering, especially since switching to the LV version.

Has the Drago LV and calls it the best heel they've ever worn; much softer than the Solution Comp.
Got the Drago LV half a size above street size as a gift. Trying them on, they felt better than anything else they had tried, but climbing in them was so painful they could barely stand on a hold.
“while just trying them, they felt better than anything i’ve tried before. but when i tried to actually climb in them, it was just so painful.”
Slipped constantly for two weeks on their first Drago LV while the new rubber was slick, to the point of shelving them for a few months.
“New shoe rubber tends to be slicker - I was literally slipping for 2 weeks straight with my first Drago LV to a point of cursing and not wearing them for a few months”
Switched from Kubos to the Drago LV; break-in took about 6–7 sessions against 3–4 for the Kubos, but now that they have been patient they absolutely love them.
“The break in for Kubos was 3-4 sessions for me while the LVs were about 6-7. Now that I’ve been patient with them I absolutely love them.”
Their first Drago LVs came with bent Velcro straps that soon began to wear through; the replacement pair had the same problem.
“Out of the box, boths shoes velcro straps were bent (see pics) where the strap was sitting in the buckle.”
Their Drago LVs fit great and have been a definite favourite; now looking for something a bit stiffer.
“I have a pair of dragos and they fit great and have been a definite favorite but I want to try something that maybe isn’t as soft.”
With very narrow feet, loves their second-hand Drago LV in 38, but it is too big for them and the heel folds on heel hooks.
“I now use a 38 second hand dragos LV. I love them but they're too big for me especially the heel part, the heel literally folds when I do heel hooks.”
Had to downsize their Drago LV aggressively and go through a miserable break-in before the heel fit properly; La Sportiva heels have always fit them better.
