Muiras, they're the best everything shoe for everything. I've tried the evole bandits and they didn't last too long, the synthatic upper didn't hold up to being stuck in a crack too well.

I hear Adidas has a cool new climbing shoe.

I like my 5.10 Ascents, have a liner with full leather upper, the heel is kinda goofy with the padding and what not but they climb well for a noob

any shoe that fits well is a good shoe.

I've stuck my Madrocks toe first into a crack before and I'm thinking a little less flex across the soul might be a good thing for trad climbing. I think it was Snake and I said, "owie owie owie owie owie owie..." all the way up.

shoes are more or less alike, get one that fits nice.
