This is the first pair of climbing shoes I have purchased. I have been climbing and renting different shoes for about a month now. I really love these shoes so far. I have only gone to the gym twice with them so far but I have noticed a vast improvement over the rentals. I used to have to take the rentals off after each climb because my feet were hurting. I can leave these on for a couple of hours with no real discomfort. I'm guessing as I break them in a little they will only become more comfortable.

These are my first (and so far only) climbing shoes. They took me up to the 5.11 range before developing a huge hole in my toe (8 months of heavy use). Yes, they stretch a lot. They will eventually conform to your feet even. Because of this, they are super comfortable. I would highly recommend these shoes to beginner climbers.

If you're a chick that's not lucky enough to have incredibly narrow feet, this is your shoe! I tried just about every women’s shoe I could find in my size and they were all painfully narrow! I usually wear a 9.5-10 women's but the 9.5 men’s fits perfect... a little snug, but that's what breaking in is for. Plus, five tens have awesome grip!

Great Shoe, but it will STRETCH. I agree with the other reviewer that the Spire is an excellent first climbing shoe purchase. It will do everything you ask of it as you're learning the basics of movement on rock and will perform well up to the 5.11 range. The Spire is a very comfortable shoe as well, a fact it owes to it unlined leather upper - as you log vertical mileage in the shoe it will soften and literally mold to your foot. Any unlined leather climbing shoe will stretch some both in length and girth and the Spire is no exception! I wear a 9.5/10.0 US street shoe and sized my Spires down to an 8.0. Perfect fit after a short - if uncomfortable - break in period.
Brands I'd also recommend: 5.10 Anasazi Velcro, 5.10 Mocassym

Good beginner shoe - I bought the Spires for my first pair of rock shoes, and loved them. They are super comfortable, don't stretch, and are very similar to the shoes that most gym's use. For beginners, this is a *GREAT* shoe. You won't get much technical stuff done with small foot holds, but this is the perfect shoe to learn in.
Brands I'd also recommend: 5-10 anazazi

About Five Ten
A family owned company, 5.10 (also known as Five Ten) has stood at the forefront of fine craftsmanship, high-performance and fashion forward technical designs within the outdoor industry since 1985. Born with a rich rock climbing heritage, 5.10 is known worldwide for the high-quality, fit and friction of their shoes, where footwear can make the difference between success and failure. Today, they continue to bring their climbing heritage to all of their products, as well as exciting innovation, quality craftsmanship and unmatched durability. Climbers, kayakers, mountain bikers, hikers, trail runners, canyoneers, and everyone else who wants technical/fashionable outdoor footwear depend on 5.10 for safety, state-of-the-art innovation, and out-of-the-box comfort.
As a huge climbing enthusiast, Charles Cole, founder and President of 5.10, knows that a good grip on a well-made shoe means everything. Determined to create a better rubber to make climbing easier, Charles developed Stealth© rubber soles, which increase the amount of body weight the rubber could bear before its bond broke away from the rock. By merely purchasing a new shoe, climbers could better climb with a sure-footed grip. Pushing the envelope even further, Cole continues to expand 5.10 soles even further with Stealth© S1, Stealth© C4, Stealth© HF (high friction), Stealth© Amphibia (water compatible), and Stealth© ONYXX, which provides 25% more friction and is twice as durable as any other climbing rubber available.
Stealth© rubber was just the tip of the iceberg for Cole and 5.10. Responsible for today's modern rock shoe design, Cole invented a plethora of firsts which include: the first sling shot rand, the first down-turned last, the first heel wedge to cushion impact, adding pull tabs on both climbing and approach shoes, baseball stitching to alleviate hot spots, graded midsoles to adjust the shoe's flexibility to different weights, the first self-draining water shoe and the first ankle to toe lacing on an approach shoe to allow for a performance custom fit. Throughout the years, there have been various 5.10 innovations, and in the years yet to come, their dedication will lead to many more.
As the shoe-of-choice for the world's top climbers, 5.10 is 100% committed to innovation and performance. All of their unique footwear designs have been produced with one goal in mind: to do what is best for outdoor sports athletes who use 5.10 shoes. From hiking to paddling to mountain biking, recreational and expert athletes alike know that Five Ten means more than footwear- Five Ten shoes are essential equipment for adventure. Rest assured that 5.10 is working hard on next season's models and that they will be bringing something wild, new and exciting into the world of adventure sports.
Five Ten Where unique comfort, durability and technological advances combine to create the best footwear in the world.

Nice, but will stretch. Trust me. These shoes will stretch, so I would recommend buying them more snug than usual. Also, my first pair for climbing indoors. Felt like they were worth the price.
