By Ranked #811 - Rock Climbing Shoes March 18, 2009

I'm a newbie climber. This is my first pair of climbing shoes! It's worth the investment as opposed to spraying Lysol on those stinking rentals... *shudders* Once was enough for me! I climb twice a week so far the rubber isn't as worn out as i thought it would be.

Pros:
1.) Great on edging!
2.) Easy Velcro straps for resting your toesies in between climbing and belaying.
3.) Love the color <3
4.) Comfortable with my street shoes size 6.5 and i ordered a size 6.
5.) Sticky rubber ;)

Cons:
1.) Sucks at smearing :(
2.) Heel is too big on my feet, i would prefer it to be narrower.
3.) Too expensive!
