Cred: 706 | Review by NeeDlzdos
Good Features
Great traction for approaches, scrambling, and easy pitches. Hailed as a great aid shoe by Mr. Chris Mac himself (I disagree). Fits well and snug. Good quality construction.
Bad Features
Arch support is lacking for standing in aid slings. My feet started to hurt after just one pitch. The toe box seems flimsy and I'll be surprised to see it last more than 1 wall.
Recommended Alternatives
La Sportiva B5, Boreal Big Wall Boot, Patagonia Huckleberry, La Sportiva Cirque Pro... Lots of choices in approach shoe. My favorite so far has been the B5. |
