The Aragon should definitely be considered for anyone or any outing where ultimate climbing performance isn't crucial and increased comfort is more valuable. The Aragon's are super easy and quick to get my feet in and out of between climbs. Or I just leave them on since my feet don't feel squished wearing them. I wear my regular La Sportiva size in the Aragon's and it's no problem to leave them on for an entire climbing session. It's not the best performing shoe on severely overhanging terrain or if intricate footwork is a must, but the Aragon gets the job done sufficiently on larger footholds common on easier and moderate terrain.
Solid pair of shoes. The first I bought when I got into climbing, and they’ve served me well.
Love them! This is my first pair and very affordable and durable
Excellent shoes for slab, and indoor
