I always resole my sportiva shoes with stealth. I almost want to send my new shoes out for a resole, because I like the stealth way better.

Cobras rule! I have a pair of la sportiva I just bought but I have no idea what kind they are! I got them off Matt and loved the way the fit. Have climbed a few times on them and they see pretty good not as good as the cobras though.

Mythos are a great trad shoes too. I disagree about them only being for a "beginner". Personally I think a beginner shoe is the shoe you wear when you first begin, then you work on preferences.

Plus, they are the first shoe to actually fit my heel snuggly.

get the testarossas. one of the best shoes ever. better than the anasazi at edging and that's supposed to be the anasazi's strength. way better heel as well. perfect for routes.

the muiras are cut a bit wider than the katanas, I'm a brick foot, I couldn't start to fit into katanas, but my muiras fit me pretty well, er painfully, but well

i just got a pair of red chili torros off ebay and while they're kinda stiff, they're extremely comfortable and edge really well.

I recently got a pair of mythos and I am really starting to like them as they break in. I can switch between them and my cliffs and really tell a difference in my foot work.
