For outdoor sport climbing and indoor climbing I use 5.10 velcro anasazis. The velcro makes it very easy to get the shoe on and off between climbs.

I recently picked up a pair of the new 5.10 Hueco's. I plan to use these for all day trad climbs. I've used them on a couple of sport routes when it was too cold to try and put on the anasazis and so far I like them a lot. The lacing allows me wear them over wool socks early in the season and if I am getting on a difficult pitch I can really pull on the laces to tighten them up.

Red Chili's Habanero .... they do it all. What can you expect from a German shoe company that makes it's shoes in Italy and gives them a Latin name, you have the best of all worlds. Seriously, they are great.

I like my Boreal Zens -- I can stand on anything with them and they are extremely comfortable. I paid $134 for my pair and then found out you can get them for about $60 on the net. So I'm going to get another pair and use one pair at the gym, the other pair outside.

I love my Scarpa Minimas and my Boreal Zens. Both a great shoe for different reason. My Minimas fit like a glove and stick great. My Zens are comfertable and also stick great.
