just wondering if they are any good and will be suited to the all around type of climbing that I do.

great white throne as seen from moonlight buttress.

The Megas are the bomb. Not only are they not available anymore from the factory but that is a killer deal on them. This shoe was great for offwidths and big walls. Great for an all around climber that once comfort and protection with the sticky rubber.
I think im gonna grab a pair while my size is in stock.
Goodluck!

I was hoping you guys could help me with a thesis i'm working on. please answer these questions:

  • do you button the top button of your shirt collar even if you are not at work?
  • do you part your hair in the middle and blowdry it, or part waaaay over to the side and use VO5?
  • T or F: playing Runescape online with my buddies is a great way to spend friday night!
  • how much above the anklebone should pant legs be when walking?
  • T or F: white socks go with everything!
  • should the tube socks you wear with the hi-tops have 2 or 3 colored stripes?
  • which is better: Boston or Styx?
  • what kind of mpg does your Geo get?
  • how are things in Aurora?

thank you!

Hopefully, you grabbed a pair, as the only sizes I see left now are really small! Can't beat the price.

I got a pair of JB's a while back, and have pretty much stopped wearing any of my other climbing shoes.

I have a pair of 5.10 Altia and sorta like them. the weird thing about them is how soft they are! you'd thjink a high top would be stiff.
the absolutely suck for any sort of edging. the advantage to this it they're pretty pliable in the cracks.
