My first pair of climbing shoes!
For one, love the color! The quality is there too, the straps can be tightened easily and the material is sturdy.I know these are not the most advanced shoes, so shoot for the 150$-250$ shoes if you want the UTMOST BEST performing shoes.These shoes are so much better than the rentals at Movement (previously earth treks) gym. These shoes have helped me to go to the next level of climbing.People in other comments have mentioned these shoes are “slippery” and I’ve definitely slipped in them but oftentimes I will have chalk on the bottom from the ground.I haven’t tried the other shoes so I can’t say if these shoes are more or less slippery than similarly priced shoes, but I can say for sure they are not nearly as slippery as the rentals in any capacity.

Great beginner shoes
As a beginner to bouldering, I tried about 10 pairs of shoes before finally finding the one that fits. I normally wear 10.5US, this one was a fit at size 12. Unlike other brands the same size, which were either too tight or too loose in certain spots, this one turned out to be a perfect match. Tried it in action and it met my beginner expectations very well. It broke in quickly and was actually so comfortable that I didn't have to take them off between climbs.I used it indoor twice a week for a year going from 5.9 to 5.11a and from V2 to V4 before the toe on the right shoe finally ripped in a spot where the sole connects with whatever you call the top part of the shoe. To me, that's excellent quality. I have moved on to the more aggressive set of shoes but will keep these for simpler outdoor climbing. These are great shoes for beginners!

Bought as a Beginner
Heads up.. I wear size 10.5 on asics/nike brand sneakers. I bought size 11 and they would not go on. Size 12 was a perfect snug fit with my toes just curling down. After breaking them in they have been a perfect fit for 2 hour sessions.

You get what you pay for.
I wear between 11.5 to 12 depending on manufacturer for normal shoes, so i went with a 12 for this one. Fits great. Does the job for indoor climbing. Haven't had a chance to try outdoor on these yet. Regardless, no complaints from me. I feel like i got the quality of what i paid for and the utility i was looking for.

Perfect for a starter pair of shoes. My son likes them.

Way way too small.
Had to send it back. I have particularly wide feel and my feet couldn't come close to getting into the shoe even thought I went a size up.
