This is an excellent shoe, but is not suggested for beginners. I have had this shoe a bit now and know, and know: they hurt. I wear a size 10.5 street shoe, and I have these in 9.5, so that of course factors in, but regardless... The shoe is very good for heel hooking, smearing, anything you could imagine, but by the end of the climb you will be desperately trying to unlace them. If you simply unlace them, with half of your foot in, it is still a very good shoe, and equivalent to a beginner's shoe perhaps.

Overall, the shoe is a very good one; however, the downside is the pain.
