I'm considering swapping from pinks to the LV models, I do like the C4 stealth rubber in both. However, the LVs seem to be more comfortable and feel more sensative. My only reservation is they are a lot less stiff. Anyone used both who can give a good comparison?

Thank you ????

Stiffness is either really good thing. Or bad. Depends on where you climb. If a lot of tiny edges, then pinks or newer Verdons are the obvious choice. If more cracks, smears and precise holds, then the LV or even Moccasym will be better.

As above, depends what you want them to be best at.

Either will get you up some pretty hard stuff.

I wear both. Indoors I prefer my LV and outdoors I prefer my pinks. I find the pinks are too stiff for indoors. (I also prefer the velcro fastening on the LVs which makes them easier and quicker to get off between routes indoors - I have shorter rests between routes indoors.)
You have to find what works for you. Everyone has their own preferences/reasons for their choice of shoes.

Good point regarding stiffness. In relation to style then probably the LVs. Thank you.
