This is my first pair of climbing shoes and i must say they have been great. I got a size smaller than my regular shoe size and they fit prefectly, no blisters and not too cramped. Ive been using these for about a year and they are in need of a resole, but they have been USED. Overall these have been great shoes and recommend them to anyone.

I have one of these and it's the best shoe for long pitches, combines precision with comfort, really good when you have to really smear your feet against the blank wall and it won't come out. I have mine for about 1,5 year and they're pretty good.

I've been climbing in this shoe for about a year now. I climb an average 5.10 and these shoes hold up great. I climb at least three times a week for at least 2 hours each session indoors and outdoors. I'm starting to loose some smearing power due to the wearing down of the rubber, and starting to get holes in the sides. The non lined leather grips your feet really nicely and the comfort is amazing. Only complaints is that at first they made my feet turn red, and they don't hold a very good heel hook

I got these as my first pair of climbing shoes. I tried on a lot and these were snug without any pressure points but at the same time they were touching my feet and toes everywhere like socks. I've been climbing now in them for about a month at 3 times a week mostly indoors and a couple times outdoors. They were amazing outside! As they stretch you can just lace them up tighter so they're great. I think they're more comfortable than a lot of other climbing shoes and I may get some more hard core ones later this summer. I don't have to pull my heals out till after about 2 hours of climbing in the gym. They do make your feet very very red for a long time though...and then your feet turn your socks red after so be aware of that. We laughed so hard the first time I took them off and saw my tye-die feet.

they are a snug fit with the lace ups, and they stretch just a little bit for added comfort. a really good shoe for a good price. id recommend them to anyone. wish they had mo' colors though!!

I bougth an 11US pair of shoes, like all my others climbing shoes, but this one looks like a 9US, almost 4 centimeters less than my ussual shoes.

Im in argentina and i cant send it back without paying a lot for the shipping.
So, to me this shoes arent really good...

Really, really comfy. The lacing system really sucks your foot in snugly, too, regardless of foot shape. I just bought them, so we'll see if they end up stretching too much, but for now I really like them.

First climbing shoes. Introduced by a friend and very experienced climber. Don't much to compare them to, but fit great, feel great and have great grip. Didn't take long at all to break and are still going strong after approx. 40 gym sessions and two weekends at j tree. They will leave your feet red from the dyed leather every time you use them for weeks to come, but i dont care about that. All around great first shoe.

I bought these shoes as a beginner on the rock walls. I have never been to a gym, so I don't know how they behave on plastic grips. On rock walls, they extended the confidence level for me tremendously. These shoes don't slide around a great deal and fit perfect (they fit me snug to my regular shoe size... so buy your shoe size if not maybe a half size smaller for a snugger fit). One year later, I am still using the shoes (they are tough) and can do some more difficult moves with them perfectly fine. I am amazed with 5.10 products!

When I first started climbing, I bought evolv demortos online but they were just too small at a size 10.. i was confused as a beginner because everyone was telling me "they should hurt a little and be really tight". I wasn't really sure if I was being a wuss until I realized that I couldn't even walk to the rocks without severe pain and maybe I needed a new shoe.

I went to EMS and was fitted with about 5 different kinds of shoes, all ranging from 80-130$. I really liked the evolv defys, but the tops just didn't hug my feet well. These 5.10s fit me like a glove, and they haven't stretched at a size 10. I'm not sure what kind of feet I have (I wear 10 1/2 street) but something about these coyotes fit me just right. I don't wear socks while climbing and neither should you!

I climb 5.10 top rope and v4 boulder (and I'm told the routes are set up much harder at my gym) and I have had no problems the 3 months I have had these. I have been heel hooking since day 1 of my climbing and have had no problems... The rubber is still in great condition with little wear.. ONLY wear I can see is a little on the leather in between the rubber on the heel, where I heel hook. I would highly recommend these for anyone who wants a pair of shoes and is willing to spend a little $$. You get what you pay for... And renting shoes about 15 times could have got you your own shoes. Someone said above me that you will outgrow these, but I see people with these in my gym climbing 5.12 routes with them. They are a no frills shoe.. These will be the perfect first shoe! too bad they are ugly haha

These are definitely great shoes for beginners, but people who improve quickly might outgrow them in no time. I bought a pair about a year ago to use for gym climbing and they were great for some time, though once you start toe/heel hooks they aren't ideal.

They do stretch a good bit. I wear a size 12 street shoe and purchased an 11 in these. They were pretty snug at first (but all shoes are tight when you have feet like fred flintstone) and eventually stretched enough to wear comfortably for a couple hours.

All in all a great shoe if your just starting out.
