Moccasym Climbing Shoe
The Five Ten Moccasym is a high-performance climbing shoe designed to excel at everything from the most difficult boulder problems to multi-pitch sport climbs. The Moccasym is a good second shoe for versatile climbers. The shape of the Moccasym's last was designed to strengthen your big toe for maximum front point power and precision. Moccasyms smear like no other and are firm enough to hold the foot on a thin edge or crack. Breathable split-leather uppers with elastic insole bands provide a skin-tight fit and sensitive feel. The patented side exit heel seam minimizes hot spots and blisters typically associated with seam stitching. Five Ten's innovative Stealth® C4 sole will assure you'll stick to the slickest of rock. Keep in mind that leather climbing shoes tend to stretch. You may want to purchase them one-half to one full size smaller than your normal shoe size. Most of the stretch will be in the width, although they will stretch a little in length.

Five Ten Moccasym Climbing Shoe

Bottom Line: These shoes will perform well—you only need to provide the power.


Reviews:



5.10 mocassym
This is my 5th or 6th pair of mocs, as my last ones are getting really thin under the big toe. For overhanging sport routes, these are almost indispensable. They are very comfortable when broken in, conform very well to the foot, and reach a point where you can curl your toe around features. They smear great but do not edge very well. They are cheap enough that they are not really worth resoling. If you do decide to resole, make sure your rand is still in good shape, as after having the rand redone, they will never fit the same. 1/2 soles done with rand material are the best for this shoe. Please bring back the Zlipper.


alright
Just got these, great grip, awesome for smearing...but a major pain to get on, maybe when they break in they'll be a bit better. They are weird since you have to kinda get in them from the side, otherwise the other side just folds under your foot.


Great shoes
These shoes are great. They are quick and easy to get on, and they are aggressive enough to get into the tiny crimps. These are the 5th type of shoes I've used, and they've been the most useful for me. Really good on granite, and they work well for limestone pockets. They conform really well to fit your foot. Takes a little to break them in, but when they are, they're great.


Great Shoes
I just bought my 5th pair of Moccasyms. The smear great, are comfortable, and are fine for indoor climbing. I would not recommend them for sending your hardest projects but great for working boulder problems.


Buy small, they stretch a ton
These shoes are great for everything from bouldering to trad climbing depending on how you fit them. Most will go super small for bouldering or sport climbing. I literally get the smallest ones that I can pull on. They’ll suck to start with but when they stretch out they’ll fit like a sticky glove. For trad climbing, size them like bedroom slippers (feet flat) and they will fit perfectly in thin cracks. They will stretch more than a full size if you climb a lot so be ware of getting them too big.
