| Smith93 | Really Comfy Approach Shoes | | 
Voted 5/5 | I bought these when they first showed up in the store and I love them. Used them for a few day hikes, bouldering in Steel Valley, rock climbing in J-Tree and I wear them to work regularly. Great shoes with plenty of comfort, no break in needed and super sticky rubber. Plus they look cool! | | Posted Jan 31, 2007 6:42 am |
| agreenstreet | super comfy, climb well | | 
Hasn't voted | I bought these used because they were super cheap, and found they would be worth the full retail price. SUPER sticky rubber, comfortable and climb really well. I have climbed 5.10 in these, although it was kinda sketchy. As anyone who has climbed in mythos knows, the lacing system keeps the shoe glued to your foot.
My only complaints: The insole that comes with the shoe sucks, get a pair of superfeet. And the rubber although very sticky, wears out fast if used for climbing with any regularity. Other than that, they are a great shoe. | | Posted Feb 16, 2007 7:32 am |
| Dan Dalton | Great shoe... | | 
Voted 5/5 | I have had mine for over a year now and they still work great for getting my to the crag. Good rubber, that becomes slightly less sticky when older, makes for a great hiking shoe as well. Really pleased with these shoes. Also great for messing around on boulders to figure out a sequence before lacing up or putting on rock shoes.

| mtngeek | Overall superb | | 
Voted 5/5 | I've had these for almost a year and use them for everything from around town to those long approaches. Very comfortable and hold really well. Looks a little like a bumble bee shoe, but who cares as long as it does what it is supposed to. | | Posted Mar 19, 2007 11:55 pm |
| Curt | Favorite shoe so far | | 
Voted 5/5 | I've had these for a little over four months, so I can't really speak to durability although there are no indications that it will be a problem. They fit me really well (my foot = narrow heel, forefoot wider but still in normal range) and have been an excellent, comfortable hiking shoe. As far as climbing goes, they have performed well on routes rated up to 5.7. Perhaps if I were a better climber I'd try them on harder stuff. I have seen another climber lead 5.10 wearing Cirque Pros with no apparent trouble.
I agree with agreenstreet about the stock insoles; ditch them immediately and replace with green Superfeet, or your insole of choice.
My biggest complaint: it would be nice to have a gusseted tongue or some such to help keep gravel, twigs and other rubbish out. This year's model doesn't have one. | | Posted Jun 29, 2007 12:39 pm |
| SundanceKid203 | Buy this shoe | | 
Voted 5/5 | I bought a pair of the Cirque Pro shoes and was 100% satisfied. I specifically bought them to wear while climbing the Grand Teton and was not disapointed. The hybrid approach/climbing features made it the perfect choice, and I recommend these shoes to anyone that will be doing a mixed-bag trip. | | Posted Jan 24, 2008 12:45 am |
| davebobk47 | Nice shoe | | 
Voted 5/5 | Good shoe. Used for some Class 3/4 scrambling and some low Class 5 and some longer approaches. Worked well on the easy hike in and stuck well to the rock during scrambles. Did okay on slightly wet rock but avoid the really wet stuff (although I think that is true of just about any shoe). | | Posted Aug 11, 2008 2:24 pm |
