In reply to UKC Gear:
just bought myself a pair of these to replace my old scarpas.
they're going to take a bit of getting used to - not great for walking in at all, but on the climb you really stick to almost nothing. not too bad on the smears, and seriously impressive on the tiny edges. even when fiddling around with quickdraws.
when i break them in a bit i'm sure they'll be even more impressive.
