Review by: ron_burgandy, 2005-01-25
These were my first shoes, I tried on dozens of shoes before I finally decided to get these. When I first got them I was in ALOT OF PAIN but they streched out (as I predicted) and now they are wonderful. The original rubber was decent but I just got them resoled with Vibram XSV and they are wicked! I have them uber tight so I can edge on anything. They are a perfect compliment to the La Sportiva Venoms that I also use. I dont think I would choose any other velcro slipper over this one!

my 2nd pair of shoes, and I'm somewhat satisfied. they fit really well, but aren't as sticky as the 5.10 stealths I had before. I'll try having them resoled with C4 rubber as suggested here. thanks for the tip guys!

These are the best shoes I've ever owned! For once, I decided to go with fit and not hype. I tried MadRock, Saltic, Red's, 5.10's, Triop... This was the best fit. I have really boxy toes, a wide foot, medium arch and a normal (?) heel. I cant say they've streched and I cant say my heel is slidding, but what I can say is that they offer great support for heavy climbers (I'm 180) and that they're great overall. I've used them on granite, shicst and orthoquartzite; slab, strait up and overhanging rock. No sticky problems here...

this is a rad shoe, even better when you resole them in Stealth C4 rubber.

The shoe is built well and fits most feet good. They are good on micro-edges and pockets, but on anything that requires friction the stink!
The rubber has a very low friction-coefficient compared to Stealth C4 rubber.
