I've been using the standard Symond 30 quid climbing shoes for over a year now and find them good to be fair upto f7a on limstone.

Any fair priced suggestions I could treat myself to for Xmas?

Cheers

You could do worse than to have a look what Steve McClure wears on his feet....

In reply to Oogachooga:

Start off with the brand that fits your foot best, and then narrow it down to the model.

La Sportivas generally work for me - I use Muira VS on limestone the most, so would get my "one shoe to do it all" recommendation, but also hard to go wrong with Solutions. Their no-edge shoes are also mostly very good, but occasionally entirely defeated by polished holds where an edge would find a nook to take advantage of, so I wouldn't say they're the best if you only want to carry one shoe.

I find limestone climbing shoes loose a bit of sensitivity, also if left wet for too long.. they dissolve.
