So far not so good... - Mad Rock Flash 2.0 Climbing Shoe - Mens

So I've had the Mad Rock Flash 2.0 shoes now for close to 3 weeks and so far I've been disappointed by these shoes in almost every way. First off I found the fit to be a little tight compare to my la sportiva shoes so I and had to bump up a half size. I've climbed with the shoes 5 times in the past 3 weeks, twice outdoors on granite and three times on plastic in the gym, and the shoes are already trashed. The left foot has rubber peeling up off the rand by the toe and my right foot looks like it's been through a cheese grader from jamming it into a crack. Also it feels like some sort of crease is forming next to my big toe in both shoes. I don't have any issues with normal wear and tear and I expected that it would happen a little quicker with these shoe's being a bit cheaper, but the fact that after only 5 times using these shoes their ready to be tossed in the trash is why I'm giving them only 1 star. Don't make the same mistake as me and splurge and get yourself some 5.10s
