We appreciate the durability of the Session shoe to take us from work to gym to bar. The suede leather upper looks at home in the office and while working your boulder project, and the harder wearing rubber will last for many approaches to the crag and commutes around town.

Love these shoes
Great around town shoes. Have been through a few pair and am sad they seem to be discontinued.

Great Shoe - runs small
Shoe as described, excited to use them as a versatile shoe for travel and outdoor adventures. Had to return for a larger pair - they run small.

My most complimented shoes
I'm not a shoe guy; I never really receive compliments on my shoes, and I never thought about it. These have been a conversation piece and were complimented the first three times I have worn them; today was the fourth, with no comments. They look good, non-climbers like them, and climbers see the versatility. My normal shoe size was the perfect fit in these. The heel makes them very easy to put on and take off, but they can be a little loose for technical climbing. I have made it up a few 5. 4s and under in these with no issues. I work at a climbing gym as an instructor, and it is so convenient to have these. It's not bad for sharing beta, and it is easy to slip on and off.

Got these for traveling and
Got these for traveling and they are amazing. Very comfortable and easy to put on. The fit is a little loose and I don’t think they would make a good approach shoe but for easy cragging and day to day stuff they are perfect.

Awesome Easy Slip On
They do run a bit small, but outside of that I really like the shoe. It feels like good quality, is very comfy, and I feel fairly confident on some loose/slippery terrain with them on

Not great
If you are looking for sturdy approach shoes, look elsewhere. The suede on mine ripped when I was walking (???) and the heel feature means your heel slips out with any moderate pressure applied to the toe.
