What we liked
- + Breathable knit upper stays cooler and more comfortable than stiff synthetic shoes
- + Strap closure gets you in and out quickly between routes and boulder problems
- + Flat, forgiving shape suits beginners who want to climb for hours without pain
Trade-offs
- - Knit upper wears faster than leather when jammed into rough cracks outdoors
- - Generic listing omits gender and version, so check the sizing chart carefully
