Great First Pair of Shoes! 5 out of 5 stars

Review by: egy, 2012-04-20


I'm really not sure how long I've owned these shoes but it's somewhere in the 7-6 years range. I'd go through spurts of climb a ton and not climbing at all during that time but when I bought them I had just started getting into bouldering and they were the first climbing shoes I owned. I didn't know much about buying climbing shoes and took the salesman's advice, for both model and size (1 size smaller than my tennis-shoes). They were definitely tight at first but it only took a few weeks for my feet to adjust and from then on it was always refreshing and exciting to slipped into my shoes at the start of each session! I'm not the most experienced climber but I can say I haven't been this happy with a purchase of any kind in a long long time!

I mainly boulder but have recently gotten into sport climbing and am thinking a second pair of shoes may be nice, also did I mention it's been 6-7 years...

Good for beginners 3 out of 5 stars

These were my second shoes and they worked fine for me as an beginner but I would never buy them again. They fit my feet ok when I bought them but they never broke in. It was more that the feet were moulded to fit the shoes when it should be the other way around. They also gave me cartilage on both my big toes. The quality was on the other hand good. I climbed lots in these and they kept the form and it took a long time to wear them out. They were cheap to.
Would i buy them again? No but maybe recomend them to beginners

round the world and one pair of shoes 5 out of 5 stars

i just got back from an around the world trip and these shoes are great. they kept up with me through hot hot weather, super humid environments, deep water soloing, and back home in cold temps and they're still ticking like glue. awesome.

For all around performance and value, you can't beat them 4 out of 5 stars

I have been coaching competitive climbers for over a decade and I'd recommend these shoes to anybody. The Flash is a great all around shoe, both indoor and out. They are also very comfortable for how well they perform.

it's a start... 3 out of 5 stars

so to start rock climbing i recommend this shoe, or even if it's your second shoe. it was my second one and i still had crappy foorwork so i tore it up pretty bad but i definetly recommend it for starters. i give it a rating of three becaus ei would never ever recommend that someone climbin these for a sport climb or any real bouldering and common...it's mad rock, everyone knows that the're not the best shoe maker, but i definetly recommedn that begginers buy this and will be happy with it. btw it'll help shape your foot for future shoes to come and it's cheap so buy it at a medium tightness. =D
