"fits well, comfortable, good quality"
"Comfortable shoes and love the color!"
"I am a beginner climber with no prior experience. I needed a shoe I could use inside or outside that was comfortable enough to wear for long periods of time without me learning to hate rock climbing. I also knew I was going to be climbing outside during PNW spring weather, so I wanted to be able to wear a sock with them. I tried on every climbing shoe with a neutral sole I could find. BD was the only one that fit, was comfortable, affordable, and had laces. I've worn it with and without socks comfortably for several hours. I've had people compliment them and ask where I got them. Super happy with these shoes. Thanks, BD!"
"My girlfriend and I just started climbing, and bought a pair each. They are comfortable, affordable; perfect for beginners :)"
"always concerned with new climbing shoes on their first climb . . . . these Momentums were great! I am confident and comfortable in the after 6 runs."
"Loved these! As someone who has been climbing in rentals for a year and someone who wants to start climbing more seriously, these are great “starter” shoes. I wear a street shoe size of 9. 5 and my rentals shoe size is an 8 (our rentals are the blue evolves). These were a size 8 and they fit great. They aren’t exactly for comfort but my precision is noticeably better. The laces are a bit short but not a major issue. Overall, a solid 10/10 from me!"
"I bought these shoes for my child in college. She received them and tried them on, used them once and realized she needed a bigger size. They will not exchange them without the tags still on them and i just want a bigger size. I'm a little disappointed."
"I recently got into climbing so I’ve been using rentals at gyms that I go to. The minute I started climbing in my own shoes I felt the difference. I can put all of my weight on smaller footholds with no problem, no more slipping off the wall. They also look sick, so I would definitely recommend."
"These climbing shoes are fantastic. I bought a second pair so I could keep one pair in Colorado and one in Florida. I normally wear a size 8. 5 but, the size 9 fit me a bit better in this case. Quality is what is to be expected from BD (excellent)."
