Sportiva Miura or Solution

Its new shoe time! I have tried both of these shoes on and  there isnt isnt too much in them fit-wise on me, both feel really good. I am looking for some plus and minus points to help me decide what to spend my hard earned on?

Cheers

the "lacing" on the solutions snap way too easily and though they can be repaired they don't work as well after.
In my experience the rubber on both wears quicker than most
I've had both but am fair more taken with my scarpa instincts

I had a pair of the Scarpa Votex LE (red slippers) a few years ago, do the instincts fit anything like that cos I really liked them?

I have the miura and there an awesome shoe, even 2 sizes down there comfy to wear for a few hours and technical enough for what i want, only bad point is no toe rubber for toe hooks and the lower strap gets in the way and erodes

Cheers all,

I went for the Miura Vs as the more all-round option.
