I bought these shoes from 5-10 outlet only $90. They are comfy. These shoes are best for multi-pitches and crag climbing. I don't suggest this shoe for single pitch sport climbing and boudering. They are lack of sensitivity but very support your feet. Edging very good.

The newtons rock!
I love this shoe and yes it does stink, but get over it man it's a freaking climbing shoe. I climb in this and the moc and love both of them as if they were my two sons.
Now get out and plunk down the cash for this great shoe.
Fit 5, rubber 5, edging 5, cracks 5 (except thin ones that's where you need moc's) slabs 5 and boy are they comfy.
I sized a little bigger than I normally would have and it's been great.

You might as well be wearing crampon compatible boots for all the feeling these give you. Nice lacing and fit for all day comfort but.....I am selling mine after the second route.

Newtons were my first.. (besides the gym rentals) Like others said , this shoe does smell ! i'd rather fart constantly and walk around then take 'em off and walk around..
after a while they get really roomy inside.. my foot goes back and forth right now . So I can't really jam my toe in places even tough the toe design is well. overall the design looks nice but still ..
For that price I say "no!"

I bought these shoes for trad, but since getting the Newtons, these are my sport shoes. Sensitivity is minimal, but they do edge well when the soles are new. The others are right about them stinking. I also find it annoying that I can stretch them out, but they return to constricted form after a while. This is probably a good feature for those of you who like uncomfortable/tight shoes.
