*(Sigh)* Where do I start. I rate this shoe in the middle because it is simultaneously the best and worst shoe I've owned. Basically- The first pair I bought is my favorite pair of climbing shoes ever. Awesome all around shoe for everything but bouldering. Semi- stiff. Comfortable. They have a wide toe-box if you don't like pointy shoes. My original pair went through 5 resoles and are the only shoe I can wear for extended time. These shoes stretch very little since they are fully wrapped in rubber, so don't buy them too tight expecting them to stretch.

My complaints: I've experienced quality control issues and zero sizing consistency with the replacement pairs I have purchased. Sizing in particular is all over the board. You have to try them on and they run VERY small. I order them anywhere from 1-2 sizes larger than my street shoe. I have no retailer, so every time I purchase a new pair there is a lot of mailing back and forth and two pair marked an identical size can be totally different. Wear them in the gym a bunch before taking them outside to make sure they fit. The manufacturer will do exchanges only if there is absolutely no evidence of outdoor wear. (I learned the hard way). Acopa rubber is soft and sticky, but it rolls too easily and wears out VERY fast.

Replace with C-4 ASAP and find a pair that fit and they are awesome.
