These shoes are super comfortable and provide great support for medium grade routes. The heel is extremely cushioned, which makes for a super comfy fit. The sole is medium-thick, which is great for climbing crimps and slabs.
Great for lead or TR and light bouldering. It is a fairly flat sole, so if you're more competitive in bouldering, you'll want more downturn.

With a fantastic lining that makes it like a pair of slippers, these are the best rock shoes I've ever worn. The performance is good for all types of climbing. Well worth the money especially for first time climbers who want more comfort without compromising performance.
