"Literally just started climbing. I've really enjoyed them as an upgrade from the rentals. I do wish they were a bit stickier though as there are some food holds I just slide right off of."
"I found these to be too small so i traded them in store for a slightly larger size. Great shoe though, good grip!"
"Bought these on sale and they’ve worked great. Easy to put on and comfortable enough for long climbs (though I do want to take them off while belaying). True to size. I wear a 7. 5-8 and a 7. 5 fit perfect."
"Used my street shoe size and as recommended for these, the same size selection fits perfectly. Adjustable straps are able to get a snug fit to my entire foot. Perfect for beginners!"
"These are my first set of shoes. I just graduated from the poopy rental ones. These definitely make it worth it. I have no technical way of breaking them down, but they are comfortable, simplistic, and make you feel like a little dancer."
"Very comfortable and they fit just right"
"Good for beginners but definitely not sticky enough for intermediate/advanced routes"
"I bought these shoes 2+ years ago as a beginning climber. They've spent many hours on the indoor walls and outdoors as I progressed from a novice to a 5. 11 climber. They're comfortable enough to wear all day on a multipitch and provide good traction on a slippery slab. I thought, as a better climber, that I should try a "better" shoe, but after trying and returning several pairs, I'm back to these again. They work, they're inexpensive, they're comfortable. What more does one need?"
"Great shoes; just didnt fit so i returned. Will look for bigger size"
"I got these for my wife who is getting into climbing. They are solid for the gym and she has done several outdoor climbs in them. They are a comfortable shoe that's not aggressive for new climbers that are getting used to footwork. Enough grip to handle good climbs though! Great quality from BD as usual and for the price - would highly recommend."
