no, these shoes are for higher end technical climbing. for a beginner lasportiva katana might be a good choice.

They have thick rubber so as long as you don't drag your toe along the wall when you climb they should last. You can but the problem is you wont be use to the downturn so your feet will kill you especially during the break in period. If I were you I would get the Miura lace up

No the testarossas are very soft, you will wear em out very fast and that's not worth the money. the La Sportiva Mantis shoes are a lot cheaper and they do well all around, and hold up a lot longer
