This is Evolv's Shaman. Designed by Chris Sharma, this is the perfect shoe for super steep and hard boulder problems. It has a very awkward looking downturned toe which they call a knucklebox, which is also on the Rasta Shamans. The rubber is strong, but also very sensitive, which I like a lot. The rubber is also very grippy. It's toe is perfect for holding on to small holds, or just flagging. The heel is very good. People say that you can trust the heel even on smaller holds. It is a great shoe and it cost only $145 from Evolv. I would go for this shoe. I think it is a good price for it's value. Probably not a good beginner's shoe.
