This is what customers from around the world say:
I have super wide frog feet, which makes most climbing shoes hurt more than they already would. Not these, though! I can wear them even with socks for 5 hour long climbing sessions without any hint of discomfort. The edge stability is also surprisingly good for an all-round shoe. I like, how well they smear on flat surfaces.
I had to bury mine a couple of weeks ago, since one of them had a hole and there was another one already forming on the other shoe. I don't really remember, how long I used these for, but I think, it was somewhere between half a year to a year. I believe, they would've lasted longer, if I a) didn't have a habit of kicking the wall and b) ordered them 0,5-1 sizes smaller.
Really like these as comfort shoes, with which I can do at least 95% of the routes, I'm able to according to strength and skill level. Only for the teeniest tiniest footholds and overhang with very tight toehooks do I have to change to my more expensive, more specialized climbing shoes.
