stellar crack shoe, solid all-arounder

By Jason Halladay Ranked #110 - Climbing Shoes November 18, 2008

All day comfort, great crack jamming and good all around performance make this a very nice shoe for those long routes or seriously demanding cracks. They are quite narrow and have ridiculously long laces (had to cut mine short). I have a narrow foot (borderline AA) and this fit like a glove in the width department. I could have sized them a half size smaller for a better fit around the toes but it's still workable. I wear a size 13 street shoe and typically wear 12.5 in Five Ten shoes so I went with a 12.5 on these. A 12 would have been better and not painful as I did notice a small amount of stretch or eventual form fitting to my foot. The toe box area has some extra space above the middle toes area which I appreciate as I have long second toe and this shoe gives it room to scrunch up into.
