LA SPORTIVA Mythos Unisex Climbing Shoes

Comfortable and durable. I hiked the Appalachian Trail in these shoes. They provided great grip and held up for about 700 miles each pair before the mesh tore away from the sole near the pinky toe. I normally wear size 11.5, but the size 12.5 Wildcats fit. Definitely recommend for long distance hiking!

Just received my third pair of these and I could not be happier!I regularly hike/walk 3,5-4 miles about 5 times a week at decent pace and I wear these out in like 8 months. I've done some jogging in them and they never leave my feet sore. They run half a size small tho and that is very important to take note of, if you're not sure exactly what size you are take advantage of the amazon free return thing to make sure you get the right size.Once worn out I still get another few months out of them by using them as my wading shoes when I go fishing, they dry off pretty fast and they're way more comfortable than wearing clonky wadingboots in small streams! :)As an added bonus, they look really nice, I love that blue color!!

This is a really good shoe - probably the best I've had. I started out looking for a decent running shoe, just couldn't find anything appealing. Somehow I stumbled across La Sportiva. Never heard of them before. The reviews were quite good, and a couple mentioned how this particular shoe could just as well be considered a running shoe (as opposed to strictly a hiking shoe). That got my attention.Also, others mentioned how this shoe runs a little small. I went a 1/2 size larger than I normally do, and am quite happy with it.I have never had a sensation of my feet wanting to "spring up" when walking around in them. I kinda felt like those videos where dogs are wearing some type of doggy shoes - they awkwardly lift their legs up, hilarious. Not that this was awkward or uncomfortable in any way. I immediately wanted to move, to run. And when I did it was quite cushioned - firm but soft.I've only had them for a week, so can't speak to their durability. But so far, no doubt the best running AND hiking shoes I've every worn. No more knee and back problems after running. I'd say go a half size up. Definitely worth the cost.

I switched to these from Inov8 & am pleasantly surprised at how much I like them!
