telemarker Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Specifically, the differences between the 5.10 Anasazi High Tops vs. the LS TC Pro vs. the Evolv Astroman high tops. Anyone out there who has tried all three, or even two of the three, to provide an informed opinion about the strengths and weaknesses between them for an all day shoe? Are the performance differences more subtle than the price differences? I get the impression that the TC Pros are becoming the gold standard all day shoe, but at a significant price jump from the 5.10's and Evolvs. Any first-hand, or even second-hand info would be appreciated!

underworld Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 dude... seamseal those puppies... well, do it BEFORE the wall. as for shoes, no idea on what's being proposed. I've used thunders for a few and they seem to work. your feet will hurt regardless. put some weight in which ones are easiest to take on and off.

telemarker Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 Do you mean free big wall or standing in aiders big wall? Free/french free majority and the odd pitch of standing in aiders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denalidave Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I've only used the TC Pros, which perform better than other shoe I've owned and are quite comfy on my feet. However, they seem to lack durability, especially given the price point on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montypiton Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I like Aces -- stiff enough for comfort in aiders, perform well into 5.11 range (they climb better than I do, certainly). Find 'em cheaper than dirt on ebay, and resole 'em. I've got C4 and Onnyx if ya need rubber, or I'll throw a half-sole on 'em cheap. I have several pairs in the bin, sizes ranging from about 9.5 to 11.5 if ya wanna demo or confirm sizing. Or if I have a pair that will work for you, I'll make you a deal that will feel like you stole 'em. Talk to me, John... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
