RuMR Posted May 2, 2003 Author Share Posted May 2, 2003 That's closer to the topic at hand!!!!!! My guess...other companies are wising up to the fact that climbing shoes are about half as hard to build as a running shoe and they are charging 2 to 2 1/2 times as much...there's gonna be a revolution in pricing...my prediction...

Dru Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 new boreal worked better than 5.10 once i broke the rubber in by climbing in it for a week. i think it has a slick crust and is grippy underneath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
