Most Helpful Positive Review My Favorite Outdoor Climbing Shoe
I've worn probably 20 pairs of climbing shoes and these are by far my favorites. They're great stiff edging shoes and incredibly comfortable. I've used them on hard boulders (>=v10) and hard routes (>=5.13) and found them to be the right shoe for the job 75% of the time. The other 25% of the time I'll either grab a pair of sensitive slippers or some aggressively downturned lace-ups, but for day to day climbing outside, they're the ones I turn to. They're a bit clunky as gym shoes, but I still often find techy outdoor-style gym problems feel a grade easier when I switch from my soft gym shoes t...

M5 Climbing Shoe

by christopher S., Written on November 3, 2016
Great shoe, working on my second pair. I buy a size bigger than my street shoe and they are pretty comfortable for at least 2 climbs. I love the way the heel fits compared to other shoes. My only gripe is the material they used for the top of the shoe, it doesnt do well when the velcro is constantly trying to stick to it. Poor material choice in my opinion. Happy with everything else. I still prefer the Demon 2.0 over these but can no longer get them.

Comfortable high-performance

by Jared, from UT, United States Written on May 9, 2016
Really impressed with these shoes. Great fit on the toe box and heel, slightly aggressive but still comfortable enough for extended wear. Toebox is rigid so edging is easy, and the rubber is super sticky but durable. At such a great price (thanks Campsaver) I would recommend these to anyone wanting to improve their footwork. Sizing - these matched my street shoe size.

M5 Shoes

by Richard H., Verified Owner from AZ, United States Written on April 13, 2016
First let me say that I cannot rate the shoes on performance. I wear wide size shoes and expected they may not fit. Unfortunately this was the case and I'm stuck with shopping local. With that, I was really disappointed because I liked the overall shoe design, both the functional and appearance aspect. I only wish it was available in a wide fit. Sorry I could not be more helpful by rating the shoe in performance.

Great shoe at a good price

by Jared, from UT, United States Written on April 6, 2016
Really happy with the M5. best fitting heel I've ever used, and the rubber is incredibly sticky. Matched my street shoe size.

M5

by N, from LA, United States Written on July 31, 2015
It's a good shoe, decent on steeper walls and fits to normal street size shoes. The down turn on the tip helps to push off of small foot holds. The main problem is that your heel doesn't fully lock in so on heel hooks your foot will slip some in the shoe. However if you are looking for a good intermediate shoe that isn't expensive this is a good buy, and they last a while.

Great Climbing Shoe!!!

by Ray, Written on April 3, 2014
The M5 breaks in quick and immediately became very reliable. I like them better then the Sharks because the toe box is wider and fits my foot perfectly. I also really like the heel cup because it seems to fit anatomically better than other climbing shoes - it has that 'glove fit'. I've been on some really long pitches at the Red the last couple of days and my feet never hurt in the M5's at all,
