I always used to love the 5.10 spires, but they were discontinued. My current pair (which did for my toes in France once it got hot) are La Sportiva Tarantulaces. I think I may try the 5.10 Anasazi Guide, as I gather they are from a very similar last to the Spires; although I may have to get them online, as I don't think anyone local stocks them :-/

There's also the Five Ten Rogue, which I gather is based on a softened version of the Anasazi last (you can get them in velcro or lace-ups) -- I'm considering trying them as a comfy multi-pitch shoe, though I don't always get on with Five Tens.

Oh, and some people loooove the Sportiva Mythos, I know.

ETA again: have you had any advice re: shoes after the broken metatarsal? Obviously it was a different injury, but when I got back into climbing after mine, I needed to use very stiff shoes for a while to minimize the stress on my foot.
