Wears the Aspect Pro tight; the lace design lets them crank down specific areas and stays put, so they can tune each foot's fit.

positive

Wears BD Aspect Pros for multipitch because TC Pros were too narrow for their feet.

positivecomfortable

BD Aspect Pros are their all-day multipitch shoe and they love them.

positivecomfortable

Aspect Pros were awesome right out of the box on Squamish granite: comfier than TC Pros and Generators with a similar small toe box and better tongue and lacing.

positivecomfortable

Absolutely loves the Aspect Pro over TC Pros: great fit, sticky rubber, edges well; only issue is delamination.

mixedsticky rubberprecise edging

The Aspect Pro fits them better than the TC Pro, but its rubber is much less sticky; they enjoyed them more after a resole.

mixedcomfortable

Their Aspect Pros are their favourite shoes; finds the rubber smeary and prefers it to XS Edge on slab.

positivesticky rubber

Has a pair of BD Aspect Pros and likes them a bit more than their two pairs of TC Pros.

positive

Sent their BD Aspect Pros in for warranty after 3 weeks: heel damage from offwidth plus rubber delaminating all over.

negativewears out fast

Aspect Pro is the softest of their trad shoes but still supportive for all-day climbing and better at thin cracks.
