Done > Five Ten Projects

fiveten
Noodles > The title says it all, with over 6 months of climbing in them the Five Ten Projects are done! I can't wear them too much because they've become too sensitve for my feet. Chris has tried them on and says the same thing, and foot hold that is sharp and it's like stepping on a tack :(

Overall they've performed as well as advertised, except when I've been outside on small edges where I found there wasn't enough support for me to complete some of the problems I was trying. The heel cup is wonderful and the shoes have worn very well, there's still a little life in these shoes but they will only be used on specific projects where they'll perform as needed

If I'd brought these shoes I'd have been happy with them, they're worth a look if you climb steep overhung boulders, don't even think about cracks as you'll not have enough support for your feet!!
