Drone CS HV

Didn't enjoy the Drone CS: toebox softened but it felt insensitive and clunky, stiff, and the toe rubber deformed on edges.

Their Drone CS HV was really uncomfortable even after break-in: toes twist and press against the walls, which is very painful.

Their Drone CS HV has the same air pocket under the heel that most shoes leave them with.

Ended up in a Drone CS HV 1.5 sizes over street; it didn't stretch but became softer and better at smearing, and they use it much more than the 2.0.

Uses the Drone CS for everything except small edges and pockets; finds Mad Rock rubber stickier and more durable.

First session in the Drone CS HV: tight in street size but glove-like fit; like a slightly softer Instinct VS with a better toe-hook patch, sticky rubber and decent value.

Their new Drone CS HV in the same size as their Remora Pro LV is an almost perfect glove fit: toes barely crunched and the heel snug.

Has the Drone CS and Remora Pro both in HV in the same size; the Drone CS feels tighter, as an aggressive shoe should.

The Drone CS HV has one of the better-fitting forefoots they've tried, but the heel is a problem.

Their Drone CS HVs have been really good for 6 months, though the heel slips out more on heel hooks the longer they own them.

Their Drone CS HV in street size hurt their heel and toes badly when standing on their toes.

The edge of their Drone CS HV started peeling off after four sessions, making it hard to trust smears.

Their Drone CS HVs were mega stiff at the start and have stayed very tight over time.

Their Drone CS HVs are very comfortable; they can climb in them for hours indoors.

The Drone CS HV's rubber is softer and stickier than the D2.ONE's but feels imprecise on tiny feet, and the stiff midsole makes smearing a fight.

Anatomically the best-fitting shoe they have with a great toe patch and perfect heel, but the midsole feels like a plank of wood.

Absolutely in love with their Drone CS HV, though the strap nearly reaches the ground.

Owns the Drone CS HV and Ondra Comp: the CS has a narrower heel with the Drone cheater heel and much stickier rubber.

Their Drone CS HVs at street size fit perfectly except for a baggy heel, and have now worn out.

Drone CS HV fit is near perfect and a great indoor all-rounder, but the soft rubber quickly loses its edge.

Wears the Drone CS HV in their normal size; tighter than they find comfortable, but it climbs well.

“Madrock comp drone hv, I'm in my normal size and they are smaller than I am comfortable wearing but do climb well”

Loves the Drone CS HV in size 9: the forefoot feels great with no pinching or rubbing, though there is a bit of dead space around and under the heel.

“I have the drone CS HV in a 9 and I love the shoe, however it does have a bit of dead space around and under the heel”
