Never again

Scarpa Techno Climbing Shoe

Scarpa Techno Climbing Shoe

Rating for this product: 2 August 12, 2009

These shoes suck.

I wore them specifically for trad (crack climbing). After a few months of moderate use (I'd say 4-5 months), there is a big hole on the toe area. On the other shoe, some rubber near the heel area is starting to peel off. So they are not durable.

As for the fit. I really wanted a pair of shoes that was comfortable yet able to provide me with protection when foot jamming. I also wanted shoes that could edge when need to. These were ok to protect the feet from the horrible pain, and they are pretty flat so you could stick these into a thin crack, but they are horrible at edging and smearing. I have only fallen while wearing these shoes, never my other pair.

Getting the right size was also a pain. These stretch so you need to get the smallest possible. I think I went 3 sizes down and I could probably go a few more.
