Praise vs. Criticism
Very comfortable and good for long training sesh.
Been using them for ~6months, good for slabs, not the greatest for small holds.
If you choose the right size, you might even last whole session without even removing them. Sole also seem to last long. Overall very good product, especially if you have wide feet.

Quality lost
The anasazi used to be my fav shoe for years(15 or so), mostly because of the excellent rubber quality. It had its issues, namely the heel and the stink, but it as always performing at the highest level.
I had heard since adidas bought 5.10 it had lost some quality. But didn't think it had lost sooo much. The current rubber is terrible, doesn't grip and waists away in no time. In under a year i had to resole twice!!
Resoled with unparalell and now feel closer to its former glory.

My wife is using this product and she is quite happy. She was previously renting and she found this one a real upgrade. She liked the fit, grip and overall performance.
It is important to note that she is not a pro, she is a beginner, thus, a pro might think differently but we recommend it for beginners
