"I absolutely love these shoes. I have the sport/trad model (ones with the roadrunner near the toes). They are a great all around shoe. I've done multi-pitch routes with them and they were still comfortable after five pitchs. They fit great too. The heel cup is perfect."

"A great shoe!

It will realy help you climb harder routes... You can probably do the 89% but this will make you do the last ten percent (face it, nothing will help you for the last 1%."
