So I have been looking at new shoes for myself and have come to both these. They both feel comfortable to me after trying them on (thankfully there's a La Sportiva demo coming up). I currently climb in 5.10 rogues and I'm looking to go a little aggressive.
So discuss.. One of these pairs? Maybe something else? I posted once but lost that post.

Thanks!!

If you want to know how to find threads you started, go to your page (click on your name) go to contributions tab, go to posts. VOILA!
As to the solution vs Miura...best bet is to probably go with what is least uncomfortable (note i do not say most comfortable!). If you are working overhung, pockety, 12's, soulutions. Miuras, steep edges, thin cracks, etc.
My $.02. Tried the futuras? WOW awesome shoe.

If you are considering the Solutions you should look at the Scarpa Instincts. It is basically an updated version of the Solution with better heel construction. Both were designed by the same guy...

The instincts fit my heal better and don't hurt so bad. The Solutions hurt, but I have had one pair of instincts and 2 pairs of the Miura VS. Solutions are just too painful.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
