Light weight great for approach and class IV climbing. These shoes out of the box climbed 3,000 feet of very vertical feet on Picacho Peak in Arizona and 5,000 feet in Grand canyon.And then flashed up Cathedral Rock on Sedona,AZ. Excellent grip soles. Slightly flat footed sole for everyday walking. Really precise feel for those who enjoy flashing across rock. Even if you do 12 plus miles of tough terrain.
Love this shoe. Sturdy, not flimsy. Great grip. Fits me like a shoe should. I would say it runs a half size small.
Flexible, narrow fit but molds to feet well and quickly. Sticky on technical rocks, but not a lot of traction on mud/loamy soil. Great for day hikes and scrambling.
I'll buy a second pair to put in storage. Comfortable, tho I know insoles in new shoes help them get out the door, but wear thin soon. I replace the insoles with aftermarket insoles ( about $25 or so ) that usually outlast the shoes.
These are the best shoes that I have every purchased. They are super comfortable and don't require it that I buy aftermarket insoles like most shoes require. They are extremely high quality and support my feet extremely well.
Bought the shoes for one purpose and they failed miserably. Had to turn back halfway up the Half Dome cable route because the shoes provided no traction on the granite.
First long outing on Mt Baker to Hogsback camp. Long hike w good elevation gain. Comfort and function were great.
I bought these for a hike that required a lot of scrambling in wet conditions and they performed very well. Very comfortable and grippy. Would buy again
REI store at the top level. I will recommend to everyone
