Red Chili Mystix Climbing shoes (9, black) - The Mystix by Red Chili are definitely in the high-end area. These climbing shoes were designed especially for use on particularly steep to extremely overhanging routes. Their design allows standing on the smallest footholds even on difficult stretches. The reason for this is the flexible sole, which on the one hand ensures adequate stability in the forefoot area and at the same time is flexible enough to be suitable for slopers. The soft design of the toe area also gives you a greater feel for the footholds. The high rubber elements on the toe and heel area make it easier to fix additional toe and heel hooks. Especially in the toe area, it is pulled far back and reliably protects the shoe and the foot.The crossed strap with a hook-and-loop fastener allows the shoes to be optimally adjusted. It also enables the shoes to be changed quickly. The practical pull-on loops also make it easier to put on and take off the shoes. The outer material consists of robust and adaptable leather, so that the shoes are both flexible and durable. The breathable tongue made of knitted material allows a continuous temperature regulation.

Performance:- relatively stiff and great for edging, they do smear fairly well, toe is precise and the shoe feels toe orientation as this is where most of the power is pushed to, heel is ok nothing amazing but nothing bad either it's fairly narrow like the rest of the show.If like myself you are fairly large for a climber ( 215lbs) and want something that can edge without exhausting your feet after a short period of edging then these are a great option as long as they fit you will.Fit:- A narrow shoe with the big toe jammed solid in the front with a lot of pressure applied to it. The volume is about medium so with the narrowness I would not particularly recommend for wide feet. The toe patch is a funny shape and can take little getting used to.

Overall fairly comfortable for a high performance shoe.I would say to anyone to go street size for big overhangs or half size up for anything else. I had a solution in a UK 10 and have these in a UK 11.5 and mostly climb steep/ vertical,/ slight overhangs

I’m not a climber myself, and these were bought these as a birthday present for my boyfriend, so please do take that into consideration when reading this review.Having said that, The BF loves these, they’re an upgrade from his old shoes and he won’t stop talking about how much additional grip these offer when he took them bouldering last weekend, and how he was able use small imperfections as foothold, which he hasn’t been able to do properly before.Rock + Run’s size guide was absolutely brilliant as well and gave me the confidence to go ahead and buy online without trying on and they are a perfect fit.
