By Ranked #946 - Climbing Shoes February 20, 2009

I just lost a pair, but they were very comfortable and great as my first shoes. i disagree with the whole foot-turns-red thing. maybe my feet don't sweat much, but it was barely noticeable - and who cares anyway? wearing socks is just silly. I got my pair about .5 too tight, and I think that hurt my ability to smear somewhat.

As for the appearance, I got about 8 comments from people on how cool these shoes look. For example, "If I had shoes that looked like that, I'd never take them off." They look better in person than in the pic.

sizewise, i bought mythos for my next pair and the sizing was identical. now that I've used both, i might prefer these to the mythos.
