i need a new pair of climbing shoes and found the 5x by 5.10 but little in the way of reviews ( i am doughting the zipper part as i have heard the zlipper was an epic failure)
I have had moccs for two years and need my second resole soon and want a second shoe just in case also had a pair of dragons but they are just crazy

i know this
- i need non-synthetic leather (feet sweat, alot)
- dont want laces as i boulder alot and they come on and off
- need tight fit slightly aggressive shoe that works for all day climbing

any info or suggestions/experience especially with respect to the 5x would be great thanks

PS i live in atlanta GA if anyone needs a partner

I feel ya man...I have two shoes and couldn't really recommend one over the other. 1. Scarpa Boosters (amazing, very aggressive) 2. Acopa B3s (anatomical outside edge, aggressive, but in Acopa style so pretty laid back compared to Boosters). Both are velcros, but I could only wear the B3s all day.
