Shoes again 5.10 vs La Sportiva or something else 6-Nov-2015 At 9:48:05 AM surfziggy

Message

I've had 5.10 shoes as my last goodness knows how many pairs. I like the moccasym for comfort and it actually seems to work pretty well on Sydney sandstone. But really I'm looking for a high performance shoes. I also recently had another pair of anasazi's which were uncomfortable but effective. Both of these now resemble tramps shoes.
What's the word on the street about rock shoes? I hear from my pommy mates that La Sportiva is better?
Requirements:
* I have narrow feet 8.5UK/9.5 UK 5.10 fits me real good
* I'm looking for something higher performance that the mocc
* I climb mostly sport routes and that's what I'm looking for a shoe for. Narrabeen, 'joey, Berowra etc
* Prefer velcro, but laces may not be a deal breaker
* Comfort is lower down the list of requirements

Any recommendations guys?
