Five Ten Dragon Climbing Shoe

Item No. 10005743

Introducing the total redesign of our famed Dragon by Five Ten. With its radically down-turned toe, the Dragon is the darling of steep-climbing troglodytes everywhere. Replacing hook-and-loop closure with laces secures the foot for maximum power through the toe and in heel-hooking. Perforated rand rubber gives the Dragon a sock like fit. Stealth HF rubber on the outsole is the perfect combination of power and friction for steep climbing.

"My Scalpel" 01/30/13

These shoes are amazing. In saying that there is a catch to them. They are made for more experienced climbers. If you are willing to learn to use these shoes with precision and further your skills in footwork then you have found the shoe. I consider them my scalpel of climbing shoes and use them for very technical overhung routes as well as small crimpy ones. If you do not have a good foundation in footwork then you will be disappointed in these shoes, but if you are wanting to up your game and climb harder routes with precision then these shoes are the king.

"Sticky, agressive, Awesome" 04/24/12

Five Ten manufactures the best rubber hands down! The toe is super accurate and full of power to help crush those overhanging boulder problems/ sport routes. For an aggressive shoe the edging capability is surprisingly excellent. You just have to ask yourself "how much do I want to crush my toes while edging?" If the heel fits you right you'll be latching everything with your heels, so go to your local shop and make sure the Dragons fit you just right!!

"Awesome-but see if you can try them on somewhere before buying" 12/06/11

These shoes work great. I heard that they run small, which I found to be true. I thought there was no way that I would need a climbing shoe any larger than my street shoe so I got the same size. I can get them on and climb in them but only for one climb on a warm day... then i have to give my feet a break. (I haven't used climbing shoes very much). They seem very durable and I expect they will last a long time.

"Great shoe!" 10/28/11

The Stealth High Friction Rubber alone makes this shoe a steep climbing darling, I love these for bouldering and steep cave sport climbing. it edges and smears okay what it really excels at front pointing toe power it grabbing little nothing nubbins and yanking in with your feet. that being said and my feelings about how great they are being said comes the constructive criticism, the heel on my left shoe has a pea sized bump in the rubber, it seems like a small defect but has thrown me off my game Heel hooking a few times. the toe box liner is wrinkly and has made these shoes rather uncomfortable, more so than other high end downturned shoes. However still a great shoe

"One of the best bouldering shoes on the market!" 09/30/11

Definitely not for beginners. Super aggressive bouldering shoe that excels at overhanging problems. Does well on steep verticals, too. The only problem I've had with these shoes is the heel. I have always had trouble with Five Ten's heels because no matter how small I size them, there is always some dead space. If you have narrow heels, you might want to check out a different shoe. The break in period for these shoes is pure torture. However, once you've tamed the Dragons, you'll never want to use any other shoe. After the break in period, they become incredibly comfortable. You just have to put in the time and pay your dues!

"Legit Shoes" 06/20/11

The Dragons are super good climbing shoes. They worked well as an aggressive shoe and a more slab type shoe. They are really comfortable as well. I got really good use out of them. They lasted about 8 months where I climbed at least 3 times per week. These shoes would are great for experienced climbers and would work well for eager beginners too. I would stick close to your street shoe size. Remember that the sizes are male sizes so if you are a female I would go do about 2 sizes. They were painless to break in. Really good shoe. I can't wait for another pair.

"Absolute Crusher" 06/16/11

If you have not yet climbed with a sweet pair of dragons you are missing out, plain and simple. These shoes are supper aggressive, comfortable and powerful. Snug all around so you can toe in, heel and toe hook everywhere. I size so that they are a little tough to put on but not painful. For me this meant 1.5 or 2 sizes larger than my approach shoes or 4 whole sizes bigger than Miura VS. Most of the time I still wear them without lacing up, until I am climbing at my absolute limit, then it's time to get serious. I wear nothing else to try and send my hardest projects.

"Great shoe for the right foot" 12/21/10

The five ten dragons are a great, aggressive shoe perfect for seriously overhanging climbing. They are tight in the toe, but do not fit my heel. I have a long, narrow foot, and there is a big pocket of air in the heel. I still find the shoes very effective, but use a different pair for any climbs with a lot of heel hooks

"The Dragon steals the V10's lunch money on a daily basis." 12/14/10

These shoes were crafted to defy gravity, forged with a toe-box that could edge on a nickel, and a heal-cup that doses everything short of altering your DNA to be more monkey like. Also, the laces keep you locked in like a toddler in a car seat. That being said the shoes fit is somewhat particular, if you like the sportiva heal bubble, these shoe are not for you. SIZE THEM TO YOUR STREET SHOE maybe a half size up. If you want a shoe that that is daily out preforming you, and leave you with no other excuse other than human error then you have arrived... congratulations

"Most Solid Shoe in the GAME" 11/07/10

I got these shoes because I had heard that these were one of the best shoes in the game along with the five ten teams, but I had tried on the teams and they were absolutely impossible to get on. I wear a street 9.5/9 shoe and got 8's in the dragons. These shoes at first were EXTREMELY painful because of the narrow width near the pinky toe. However, if you're willing to suck it up and endure the pain during the break in period, these shoes will after a while treat you like gold.Dragons provide some serious toe action, and the heel is the first to fit my foot and not have the annoying air pocket that can cause the shoe to pop off on really aggressive heal hooks.
