I just bought a pair of the thunder from Rock hardware, they are awsome shoes - the new scarpa rubber is choice.
five ten is also good, but make sure you get a pair with the old stealth rubber - not the new one(the rubber on the new 5.10 is too sticky and doesnt last that long)
but I also agree that as a new climber, you will wear out your first shoes really fast, and maybe going for the most expensive brands and the most technical shoe first off isnt a good idea. |
