First of all, this is the abslolute hands down COOLEST FKING LOOKING SHOE CREATED!!!! Second, it is the stickiest grabbiest shoe evvvver. it heel hooks like no other, whith a huge cup- great comfort and friction. Great toe scums and and toe hooks, great for overhangs as everyone has said, but also awsome on vertical because of the knife-like edges it has. The toes wore out after a couple of months of use but madrock replaced them for free. The velcro on the straps is coming off as well as the rubber on the heel, but i have found out that if you use shoe goo before the problem gets too big, it fixes everything. i also climb in them for 2-4 hours a day at least 3 times a week, so the durability is actuly quite good. Very comfortable-BEST SHOE EVER!!

As they've stated above, great shoe for the price-its good to have one really awsome specialized shoe for hard stuff (the loco) and one good sturdy shoe for gyms and easier stuff. I completly wore through a used pair of flashes that I bought for $40 and patched the helll out of them-and madrock replaced them with a new pair for free. Now that is crazy, I even explained my situation and they still replaced them. Mad Rock rocks!!!
