Well i dont know whats wrong with dudemanbu these shoes are great! i thought i was getting a p.o.s. shoe that would last for about a month but when i got them i was shocked to see how nice of a product i was getting for such a great price! i mean sure they arent anything like la sportivas or anything but they are a quality shoe. they edge well, the heel cup feels pretty good, the rubber is very sticky, but i would buy the same size as your street shoe or a half size bigger. great shoes!

Worst shoes that i've ever had the displeasure of putting on my foot.
First, due to the poor location of the pull tabs, you need three hands to get it on.
Second, the pull tabs aren't sewn in well. They both irritate the achilles area, and will definitely wear out quickly.
Third, it's just a very uncomfortable shoe for a higher volume foot. The toe box is super narrow, so much so that I couldn't even get my big toe to where it belonged.
When i finally got these suckers on (a size 10, my street shoe is a 9 !!) they were impossible to even walk around in. I'm calling climbingshoes.com right now to send them back.

I was skeptical about a 29 dollar shoe at first. The picture on climbingshoes.com kind of makes the shoe look shitty. I braved it and ordered them anyhow and so far they are great! The moment i took them out of the box i knew they were going to be nice. A bit tight at first, but the upper stretched out just enough to get in a out with little problems while remaining a very nice fit. The heel pocket is nice and deep but doesn't have much of a dead spot like my anasazi's do. This shoe is agressive. Very similar to the LaSportiva Venom. The first think i noticed when climbing is how great they edge. The rubber is much more durable than 5.10 C4 and in my oppinion just as sticky. The only downfall i can see so far is that the blue leather on the heel seems out of place. It doesnt really fit tight to the skin but that doesn't really affect performance. As far as size, it fits slightly larger than 5.10 anasazi's. So if you take a 10 anasazi, go for the 9.5 Terabyte. The bottom line is this shoe is cheap, durable, and pretty damn nice.
