- Instinct VS Climbing Shoe by Scarpa — Ideal for: gym sport climbing, steep outdoor climbing.<div>The Instinct series has been my primary outdoor sport climbing shoe for almost a decade. They have an aggressive shape while still maintaining a stiff midsole. The toe box fits a wider foot and is the comfiest aggressive shoe I've worn.</div>
- La Sportiva Men's Katana Lace Climbing Shoes by La Sportiva — The Katana is the most aggressive full-sole shoe out there; and is a staple for many climbers. Fit for comfort on long routes these will provide the support and precision you need. The adjustable lace system allows for a wide range of fit, and the stiff mid sole helps support edging on vertical/steep footholds

This is the shoe for all day trad climbing comfort. The high-top provides support for ankles in cracks, while the subtle downturn provides enough performance for tiny edging.
