A firm insole sheet makes it easy to stand on etriers all day while aid climbing or belaying."

From CampSaver.com:
"The Garmont Sticky Cat is an approach shoe that sticks to all kinds of rock for mixed climbing and scrambling.Lace-to-toe throat, sticky outsole and rand + secure foot retention = climbing performance, but stability plate + comfort ride dual durometer mids"
From Altrec Outdoors:
"Serving up a little bit of rock shoe, a touch of running shoe, and a pinch of hiking boot, the Garmont Women's Sticky Cat Hiking Shoe is a solid choice for the person who gravitates to rock, whether it's slickrock rambling, casual bouldering, or approaching the biggest of big walls. A sticky Vibram Crossover outsole provides traction on dirt trails or exposured ridgelines, and a performance lace-to-toe fit offers the sensitivity necessary for making confident 5th class moves. A dual durometer EVA midsole is another contributor to the shoe's fabulous sensitivity, placing firmer material underneath the forefoot for better feel on rock and softer material beneath the heel for cushioning that feels like a road running shoe. The Garmont Sticky Cat Hiking Shoe for women does not shy away from hauling heavy loads of climbing hardware. A firm EVA protection plate underneath the midfoot zone supports and stabilizes the extra load on the feet, making long marches back to the car a much more pleasant experience, especially after peeling off your shrink-wrap tight rock shoes. And to further care for the feet, a mesh upper with quick dry lining provides a low moisture interior environment that reduces the possibility of blisters and odor build-up."

I'm the unfortunate owner of a pair of those shoes, which I bought thinking mainly in their scrambling aptitudes. Well I was wrong. The sole doesn't stick at all, plus the mesh lining on the side punctured after just one day out. They are confortable to hike on, but you will have to look out for good footholds when it gets steep."
