5-10 Canyoneering Shoe

The one and only shoe designed specifically for Canyoneering. They've been out for a few years now, with mixed reviews. I've been using them now for 2 years without a problem. I love them. They stick great to sandstone, they drain water extremely well, and offer good support. I also like how the design prevents most rocks from entering the shoe while walking.

Some people have had a problem with the stitching coming loose on the side of the shoe in places, but if that happens, all you gotta do is send it in to 5-10, and they'll send you a brand new pair free.

They're kind of hard to find, as they're a specialty item. I picked mine up at Black Diamond here in town. They can also be found in a few outfitters in Zion's Nat'l Park.

I like mine as well. Usually the first thing that goes is the drain plugs. I'm going on my second season with them, holding out pretty well.
