Reviews overview

This is what customers from around the world say:
I love my Mandalas. The fit is great for my foot and my heel is not slipping out at all! The rubber is great and stiffness is great for me at climbing overhangs and caves. They can be a little bit too stiff sometimes, on some low angle volumes on slabs tho. But if you press hard enough they will stick no problem. Couldn’t recommend enough!

No-edge works surprisingly well even on tiny footchips.
Extra bonus is durability - due to rubber patch shape that overlays the top you get extra layer that extends its lifespan.
