Absolute Garbage, Five Ten for life.

No I do not work for Five Ten. Nor am I affiliated in any way.My thoughts:These shoes have a nice fit, I found them to be comfortable right off the bat and they stretched about
a full size and fit true to size in the beginning. The leather is plush and soft, but this reduces durability significantly.My feet are approx size 39-41 depending on the company,
hangover, etc. etc. I also have a wider-than-average toe box, a high volume top of foot, and high arch area. Both the male and female versions of this shoe fit fine, but I went
with the male.------The sticky rubber is rubbish. I did a side by side comparison with my girlfriend's velcro Five Tens and was not able to gain even 50% of the trac... Show more

I've been using the Mythos for 25 years. When I wear out a pair, I get another. I've had them resoled them as well, using their standard rubber, which is excellent. The shoes
adjust to your foot shape, making them amazingly comfortable. When I want to go light, I can descend in them as well - the maximum was a several hour descent through
desert terrain from the Epinephine route at Red Rocks. I don't recommend climbing that long of a route, then hiking down in them, but they did the job with no damage. I don't

This bothered me, but I was convinced I was doing something wrong. Well I basically thrashed them entirely on a 4 day JTree trip. Near hole in the top-toe-area and significantly rounded and wore down the rand. Never again.------I didn't find the heel cup lace system to be as cool as it seemed, though at first glance is a neat idea. I'd say it maybe gives you a bit more snugness...but again, not worth the price. Don't come crying when you have to relace them once those little fancy-frilly-flaps are very broken in.------If you're planning on ONLY climbing splitter hand cracks, these may be a good option...but there are more durable options out there for the same price...so...why?TL/DR:For the price there are significantly better options available (albeit with a longer break-in period). Anasazi line from Five Ten or a Scarpa lace-up.Akin to the Kardashians: I just can't wrap my head around why everyone loves them.... Show more

Comfort and Performance in One Shoe
27 March 2019
I bought these about a year ago, and I still love them! They are my second pair of climbing shoes, and I use them exclusively. No problem holding onto tiny footchips.I'm still new to climbing and don't do much fancy footwork (like smearing, toe/heel hooks, etc.), but when I do do something fancy, they do just fine.The #1 selling point for me was the comfort level. They are like moccasins! I can wear them for 3-4 hours at the gym without any pain or needing to take them off.I also see a TON of people at the gym wearing these - they are very popular, and for good reason.After wearing them 2-3 times a week for a year, they are still holding up just fine. I'm planning on getting an aggressive pair in addition to these, but these are a great overall shoe.... Show more

Great pack!
5 May 2023
Awesome pack! I had a pack that made my shoulders very sore after just a few miles of hiking so I decided to upgrade. This pack has been great. Very comfortable, this pack carries the weight much much better- in the hips not the shoulders. Love the storage/ organizational options as well!... Show more

Great shoe - a classic for a reason
1 January 2020
I'm basically a gym climber, climbing for about 3 years. The Mythos is known as being a very comfortable, fairly neutral shoe, and it is. I find it markedly more comfortable than my (older) pair of Finales. Good grip, good stiff sole. I find that I need a half size smaller in the Mythos than in the Finale, for what that's worth.A sale at Moosejaw allowed me to get it at 30% off, so I'm a happy climber.... Show more

Hands down my favorite shoes!
16 August 2015
I've had these shoes for a little over a year now and I couldn't be happier with them. I'm mostly a gym climber, but I do go on the occasional trip to the crag. The first thing you'll notice is how comfortable these shoes are. You can wear them all day, no problem! Smearing is a dream, crack climbing is effortless, face climbing won't slow you down, overhangs and 45's aren't too easy...but I'm still perfectly capable of crushing them just as well as my friends wearing more aggressive shoes. I climb 2-3 times a week (and I admit to dragging my toes when I climb) and the toes are just now starting to wear through to the leather. Ive thought about giving another kind of shoe a try, but all the shoes I would consider going with are more expensive and less comfortable, ... MoreI've had these shoes for a little over a year now and I couldn't be happier with them.

Ive thought about giving another kind of shoe a try, but all the shoes I would consider going with are more expensive and less comfortable, so I will no doubt either try to resolve the ones I have or just straight up replace these with a newer pair. If you're on the fence about whether or not to buy these, stop thinking and just buy these now! You won't regret it.... Show more

La sportiva mythos medium foot
25 June 2021
I have wanted to buy these shoes for a long time, I tried on a pair of 42 and they made me fantastic but they were worn a lot. So I decided to buy an EU 42.5 with a leg length of 27.5 and they fit like a glove, if they open due to the skin they will be bigger for me but with the Mythos fastening system I will be able to tighten them again and they will fit me just as well. Do not be afraid to take them half smaller than what La Sportiva gives, they will fit you tightly but they will open. I got them to climb multi pitch in Meteora but until then I climb the island...

My favorite shoe for years
5 August 2019
I've been wearing Mythos for over a decade - back when they were still purple. They are a great all around shoe for climbing. Once you break them in they are super comfortable as the leather stretches to fit your foot geometry. I have a prominent Achilles heal and most shoes don't fit me well as their rands try to pull the heel in and cut into my Achilles. Mythos has an unique lacing system that allows you to set the tension.They are NOT a super high performance reverse toe show for your test piece. They are a well made shoes you can send with all day and not need to pull off after each pitch.... Show more

Excellent shoes don't have to hurt! The most comfortable things I have ever put on my feet, which make climbing fun. I come up 3 euro sizes smaller than my La Sportiva mountaineering boot size (40.5. Rather than 43.5) Mythos stretch a lot in the first 3 or 4 hours of wearing.... Show more
