good shoes, but why?

Written on Oct 22, 2014

I like the build of the shoes and stickiness of the rubber, and they seem to be a good deal. They're comfortable for their performance. My gripe: I still question the idea of approach shoes in the Cascades. So often the approaches and descents are over loose sand and crud, and you need a more aggressive sole than the little sticky tabs of approach shoes.
They would probably be great if I were spending a week in Tuolumne. Hey there's an idea!

confidence inspiring

Written on Oct 16, 2014

They are great to have and to supplement stoppers. They go in a little quicker and have to be more secure if there is a bit of a flare. I don't know if it's justified, but the wide cams inspire confidence. I placed it the first time out, but I'm of the leader must not fall school, so I can't actually attest to their holding power.
