this rope handles real nice. solid and dependable. took a couple outings to get the kinks out of it. works well with atc and it's easy clipping. highly recommend.

like they say, plenty of extra space. i can fit most my gear in there, minus the shoes. i usually just clip those to one of the strap. it'd be great if it had enough space to throw a water bottle in there too... otherwise, it's a great bag.

great edging shoe. real strong toe. i love 'em, but i've found the katanas to consistently delam within about 6 months.

these are pretty comfortable shoes once you get them broken in. the leather's real nice and soft. only downside is that the front area is a bit wider than most shoes. the padded heel is nice, makes hooking a lot more comfortable, though i'm considering sanding down the edge it has on the sides of the heels (i like the rounded profile on the heels). overall a great shoe (can't complain about shoes that are perpetually on sale)

pros - comfortable, lots of feeling, very supple, great smear. superb once they're broken in

cons - rubber started to flake in some parts fairly fast. my foot never seemed to quit soaking up red dye. break in takes a while.

overall, i'd have to say that i'd go with another pair of these, and anybody who's looking into a pair of slippers should definitely give them a try.
