Five Ten Grandstone Climbing Shoe - 2011

Five Ten Grandstone Climbing Shoe - 2011 BCS

Item # FVT0090

Sit down and listen up kiddies because the Five Ten Grandstone Climbing Shoe has some trad glory stories to tell. Don't let it's demeanor of age and wisdom fool you; the Gladstone brings the modern edge with an uber-sticky Stealth C4 rubber outsole and a supportive midsole, which conspire to make it the stiffest shoe in Five Ten's line. Its high-top leather upper protects your ankles during puzzling moves, so lace up, rack up the pro, and put some artistry in motion on your next trad project.

Bottom Line:

Don't you love story time?

Sticky and Solid

After a couple sessions in the gym breaking these in, I wasn't too pleased with them, but as soon as I put them to use on some granite cracks at the Needles, I quickly began to love them. Very sticky rubber and stiff soles makes them good for both edging and smearing, and they are crack monsters (except for little finger cracks). Comfy to wear all day after breaking in, and good ankle protection for really getting your whole foot in those wide cracks. Can't comment on durability yet, but they seem pretty burly.

Super stiff climbing boot. Not super precise yet, but I have only worn them a bit. Have a medieval feel to them, and they are amazing on the wide cracks. Got them exactly my street shoe size and they are perfect for cracks, and all day climbing. Half a size down would make them more specific for technical granite, but that is what TC Pros are for.
