Sticking it with the Five Ten Crawe

The Five Ten Crawe is very stiff and bulky, it almost feels like you’re wearing a high-performance ski boot when you first put it on. The shoe softens a bit over time, but not by much. If you like soft and sensitive shoes, this probably won’t be a go-to. I would recommend the Five Ten Crawe to intermediate climbers looking to step up their game and dive into more high-performing climbing footwear because it provides a lot of support and performance. More advanced climbers, however, might think this shoe feels a bit clunky.
