In reply to kingborris:
Should anyone be interested, I ended up getting a pair of the red shoes, and I'm really pleased with them for the money.
The rubber seems pretty decent, and I certainly havent been sliding off stuff becuse of them. OK, they arent the most precise edging shoe, as only having one velcro strap does mean they are a little prone to not being overly tight around the forefoot.
Still for just over 1/3rd the cost of my La Sportivas, they'll more than do for most stuff I climb.
