La Sportiva Mythos Climbing Shoe - Men's DO NOT USE

Flawless?

By Ranked #1672 - Climbing Shoes July 27, 2007

I have had my mythos only a few short months. I had La Sportiva Cliffs previously, and sized these 1.5 sizes smaller than my Cliffs. They were really uncomfortable at first but they stretched to fit perfectly. Definitely size them almost too small. They do stretch in length a little bit. They do not have as much support as most shoes which can take a week or so to adjust to. They smear really good and just eat thin cracks. I find they edge pretty good as mine are so tight. The pattern is pretty cool. I worry about how I could possibly re-thread the laces if they broke! I prefer a slightly higher heel but the mythos heel holds very tight.
