"War neugierig auf den Schuh, ob er sich dann wirklich zum klettern eignet. War positiv überrascht, wie schwer man mit dem Schuh klettern kann (in der Halle). Von der Passform, eher schmal. leicht Schlupfrig an der Ferse- Hätte den Schuh aber auch eine halbe Nummer kleiner nehmen dürfen (42 statt 42,5). Nutze ihn eher in der Funktion als Aufsicht, um auch mal kurz was vor zu klettern. Für den Preis unschlagbar!"
"Only used indoors so far, but the shoes are great. Super fit"
"That is exactly what I was looking for! As a beginner, these are perfect. Not too soft, not too stiff. Great product, nice price."
"Very small/thight fitting!! I normally use a EU size 40 on this kind of climbing shoes (wanted it comfortable for long climbing days) now I wear a EU 42. Now my wife wears them."
"Out of the box they fit great! Really light weight, grippy rubber. I even wore them on some 5. 8 warmups at the gym. The jury is still out on durability as I've only been on a couple approaches with them. Overall I'm happy with my purchase."
"Haven't yet broken these in but so far they work really great! Only needed to go a half size up from my normal shoe size."
"I got these on sale to be a breathable pair of gym beaters that I wouldn't be tempted to do cracks in after having used the Aspects for a while. Sized half size down from my street shoe size for performance. It takes about 4 hours of continuous use to break in. You can't grab with your toes, as they are stiff, thick soled beginner shoes, but I've been able to edge, hook and smear up a bunch of V8s in them on a variety of terrain. Looking forward to these being my weekday gym shoes for a good long time. I normally stick to Stealth rubber, but i have found this rubber is maybe a good compromise between XS edge and C4. It's stupid sticky for a harder rubber. Only complaint is that the laces are about 3 too short to be nice to work with."
"I have been climbing in these for about a year and a half and they have really treated me well. I got them as a beginner and now I climb around 5. 11 rating. Using them twice a week, for a year and a half and they still hold up well. For sure reccomend these"
"Excellent fit (laced shoes always fit better than strapped versions) and decent quality for the price. A fairly neutral profile and an excellent choice for beginners who don;t know exactly what they want out of a shoe just yet. I'd been climbing rentals for a month before getting these and they took my climbing up a notch. Also, ignore the reviews about sizing; anyone beyond an absolute novice knows that you want a tight fit on shoes as they break in and you want a snug fit in order to get the most grip and feedback. I ended up with my street shoe size in these."
"I bought these to get me through having my Scarpa Helix shoes resoled. I didn't think I would ever find anything more comfortable than those, and still performed, until I put the Momentums on! I'm climbing 5. 10 lead and V 5/6 boulder problems. These dry out much quicker than all-suede uppers and are crazy comfortable after a couple of weeks of breaking them in. The laces really help them fit like a glove. The rubber sticks to the crucial smears on harder routes. Easy to find confidence knowing I've got these on! I would highly recommend these!"
