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...
