All day high performance trad shoe

[Alpinfox]

I wear five-ten ascents (the brown/black velcro padded heel "rigs") for just about everything. They are comfortable, "perform" well enough for me, and are easy to take on/take off between climbs (two velcro strips). I wear them for 20 pitch trad routes and one pitch sport routes.

 

My favorite shoes ever are five-ten moccasyms, but mine were stolen. I need to get a new pair, but haven't done it yet. For thin cracks, technical faces, etc, they have been my favorites. I wear them, and all rock shoes, with my toes flat.

 

I have a milk crate full of about 6 pairs of rock shoes in my garage that I never wear anymore: Scarpa marathons, madrock mugen, ..... can't think of the others right now.

For the record my acopa's, well lets say I did not like the rubber one bit, and they delaminated after a couple uses. Not good. I know its not my footwork because anyother shoe has never done that to me.
