Decent all-arounder but has durability issues
By Photoleif
I'd like to give a glowing review of this shoe, but unfortunately my pair hasn't held up well.Negs: the rand has pulled away from the uppers in several places from edging, and despite the application of contact cement and clamping, it re-separated a couple weeks later. For the first few uses, the pull tab had a scratchy bit that I eventually clipped off. The soles are wearing very thin below the balls of my feet as well. I would estimate I've climbed about 400 hours in these, but expected more. The heel doesn't fit me all that well (I have a medium-width foot, too wide for La Sportivas), and hooking is a bit dicey sometimes. They've been a very nice, squishy and workable shoe for gym climbing but the edging isn't spectacular on rock. Smearing is excellent.Goodness: I fitted these a bit tight and since they're unlined, they've relaxed to the point that they're extremely comfortable. I can walk around in them for hours. The stitched insole is kind to the skin. They fit at or slightly small relative to street size: I usually wear 10.5 and bought an 11 in these. The laces never broke, and the eyes all took lots of use with no widening. All leather components of the shoe are intact and would go for much longer.Final word: given the option of taking these to a re-soler or buying something new, I opted for Mad Rocks. I'm ready to explore some other brands. I'm not gonna pitch 'em but they'll definitely be the backup pair.Later edit: I wish I could change my rating a bit. The Mad Rocks I got have, unfortunately, shown me what I'm missing in the Coyote -- incredible smearing. If you'll be doing lots of gym climbing, the Coyote is a very nice shoe. It holds its own nicely outside too, but not for crack climbing. I picked up the Mad Rock Rampage and cannot recommend it at all for gym climbing... you slide right off the holds because its sole doesn't give at all.

Great grip, comfortable enough to leave on between climbs
By J. G.
I've had 5.10's for the last 10 years now and most recently a pair of these shoes (~4 years old). They are spectacular for long climbing days or indoor where you don't want to keep taking them on and off. The toe and edge are very good on small holds, but not quite like a pair of elf shoes would be. They smear very very well, and I have no problem stemming, chimney-ing or doing crack jams with them. They can be slightly loose for heel hooks, but really they are designed for comfort and too tight a heel isn't comfy long term. I only climb up to 5.11 indoor and 10s and 11s outdoor, so you can use that info to put this in context. I am sorry to see all the bad reviews just on sizing. Yes, climbing shoes are snug, and generally you have to break them in, so they are not comfy on the first try. My last pair of Spires took 3 weeks to shape to my foot, but they were a glove thereafter. Read up on climbing shoe sizing before you buy, or go to a walk in store. It's worth getting it right once, then you can buy easier online. My sizing suggestion for this type of shoe is to have your big toe bent, but your second toe just firmly touching. For 5.10s, that is usually the same as your street shoe size +- 1/2 size. All toes bent should be reserved for elf shoes in my opinion, and no toes bent is for beginners and long scrambles.

Excellent beginner/intermediate climbing shoes!
By JamesB
I purchased my Five-Ten Coyotes a month or so back and am super happy with them. I'm a newbie (climb 5.5/V0) who frequently has to scrape up the wall looking for toe-holds and these dogs stick and hold very well. The suede-like fabric required no break-in (no shoe-burn on my ankle, like my girl had with her La Sportiva Tarantulas) and the toes and tread shows almost no wear so far. My daughter even bought a pair 2 weeks ago and loves them too (she has wide feet).When buying be advised that the treads will stretch out a half-size or so over a few weeks, so make sure you get the smallest pair that you can uncomfortably fit into without socks (toes slammed in and cupped down, but not crossed). Since they lace all the way to the toes you can play with them when they are new and then cinch them tight up after some good use. The foot shape is normal and comfortable, and not aggressively shaped. I have size 10.5 feet and Coyote size 10.5 shoes work well perfectly after break-in.-JB
