the best shoe 5 out of 5 stars

I love this shoe it fits perfect, edges amazingly, heel hooks like a charm and I can do it all right out of the box without ever having to break the shoe in. I have been wearing this shoe for a few years now and I have never had a problem with the quality of the shoe. It always last for several months of every day use and never smells bad even though I certainly sweat a lot in them. I am primarily a sport climber but I will boulder and climb cracks as well and I never feel like I need to switch shoes. This is a very comfortable and durable shoe that performs very well on all terrain.

great shoe 5 out of 5 stars

got this shoe a few months ago and was amazed at how well I performed in them right out of the box. I didn't feel that I had to spend a couple of weeks breaking them in, which is always a plus. The padded tongue of the shoe is very comfortable and allows the shoe to fit tight without being uncomfortable. I love the shape of the shoe it really performs well on my foot, the heel hooking edges always comes in handy. I am always a little worried when I buy a velcro shoe since I have had a problem with the velcro wearing out quickly but, I have worn this shoe a lot now and it is holding up great!
