my first quickdraws...i got them in a package deal...got nine of them. they work well. i have been very pleased with how well they have held up. not the lightest, however i have been very pleased with them. definitely worth the money.

i know this was made to be a womens shoe, but i love it. i had the dominator v's previously, but i got these on a warranty claim for the said dominators. they are built on a slimmer last than the dominators, but still have the downturned toe, and are sans the built in toe box. i have slimmmer feet and they fit great. the downturned toe is great on all climbs, but works best on slightly overhanging climbs

a good all around beginner shoe. a good shoe for all that abuse that beginners generally put their shoes through. i have a little bit of an older style, but the rubber on them isnt too good. i am definitely going to resole them with stealth rubber. i thought i had out climbed the shoe, but now that i have started trad climbing, i find them great on longer climbs and work well for climbing cracks. the rubber however, is peeling around the edges and the leather around the ankle has stretched alot.

very aggressive shoe. the toe is very downturned. i found this shoe great for gym climbing and bouldering. it really excelled on anything overhanging, but on vertical or positive climbs, they didnt perform too well because of the downturned toe. be weary of the built in toe box. it doesnt stretch at all. i bought mine a little small and suffered with them until i bought new shoes. if they are comfy in the store, get them, but dont get them too small.

these shoes are very comfy. a little stiffer than a straight slipper, they provide great support. very sensitive shoe. I have been thoroughly pleased. i have used mine from bouldering, to sport, to trad, to multi-pitch sport and have been very pleased with them.
