Hi PPP.
We feel it is possible to have a good all-rounder.
The Lynx shape offers good levels of performance across a range of situations. While it is true that the more down-turned offerings available are likely to perform better on steeper rock, the Lynx still performs well in these situations. Similarly, while shoes such as Joker or Silex are very comfortable for long mountain routes, the Lynx shape is sufficiently comfortable to stand being worn for long periods of time.
Obviously this depends on the shape of your foot, but following on from the feedback we have had so far from customers, reviewers and our team climbers, our opinions have been reinforced.
We are running demos at walls around the country, I invite you to come along and try them for yourself to see what you think. Details on our Facebook page.
