After climbing in these shoes a couple of times the heel pinching has gone away - Yay! Great shoes once broken in, they even helped me up a 5.10c on my 6th climb with no heel pain (too bad they can't do anything for my bruises).

Okay, so I know climbing shoes aren't supposed to be as comfortable as house slippers, but the heel pinches when I'm in distress (of course I don't feel the pinch on the ground or on easy climbs, just when everything else is screaming the shoe bites). I hope once I break them in it will lessen. Other than than, they are great - comfortable around the rest of the foot and great grip.

I tried on other harnesses before selecting the Selena - this is definitely the more comfortable harness I was concerned that the legs not being adjustable would be a problem but it fits really well and seems to be fine. I'm new to climbing and delighted I spend the extra $ to get something that'll grow with me. LOVE IT!
