good shoe

By Charlie MacDonald Ranked #1129 - Climbing Shoes October 16, 2009

This is a really good shoe. First of all, if you get the right fit, there is virtually no dead space in the heel. I wear a 9 in the anasazi, which is my street shoe size, and i sized up to a 9.5 in these and they're perfect. A little painful and tough to get on but that is to be expected at first. The rubber is noticably stickier than C4 and onyx, but i'd say it is too close to call between the mystique and HF. I also own the Jet 7's and the teams run about a half size smaller. the mystique rubber cap on the top of the teams is far superior to the "green" rubber upper of the jet 7's, which isn't actually very sticky. also, the split tongue upper of the jet 7's is bulkier than the elastic upper on the teams. overall they are a super aggressive, very sticky shoe that fits very well with a low profile.
