Nobody who matters judges new shoes, but you can also extend the life of your shoes by resoling them before they get torn up. https://rockandresole.com/ does mail in resoling, but there could be a place near you. Huge savings!
That’s great to know. Thanks for the link. The shoes I replaced were pretty mild, all-around shoes, so I was glad that I replaced them in the end. I went with a more aggressive, down-turned toe, and a stiffer heel. They come off as soon as I’m not climbing, but they are awesome while on the wall.
