Pros: Great stiff edging shoe. A1 construction quality. Quick lace tightening. Cons: Expensive. Not all shoes will fit all people right.
After the long reign of my softer Mythos climbing shoes, I developed a finger tendon issue when breaking into thinner, steeper climbing. A friend who is much better than I and a self proclaimed "shoe freak" told me I needed edging shoes for the sport ...
Pros: Power, strong edging, slipper like feel, fully-lined Cons: Price, not for the beginner
If you are looking for a rock climbing shoe that actually delivers better performance this is it. When I'm looking for that much sought after on-sight or just the red-point, I reach into my quiver of about 4 different shoes and pull out my Miuras. ...
Pros: comfort ~ style ~ design ~ shape Cons: a bit on the expensive side
i bought these highly expensive shoes thinking that i was getting ripped off. i figured that they would be just like any other shoe except for the big 'swoosh' logo and the catchy 'bee color' style. i went out to the wall and i just pounced right up...
Pros: Edging, durability, security, heelhooking, fit. Cons: Long break-in time, not the best smearing ever.
I had tried about seven different pairs of shoes when I put these on, and I instantly knew that these were the ones. They have a sense of power and security about them, fit really well, are sticky and brilliant for the micro-edging that's required at our local crag.
I've had mine for 8 months, they took three months of regular (3x a week) use to break in, but were so worth it. They are showing no sign of coming apart, and considering how much these shoes have been used (both indoor and outdoor), the rubber is lasting really well.
If they fit your feet, buy some. You will not regret it.
