I like the Bandits (I have the velcro) a lot, partly because they fit me really well, I wear them for most stuff (trad e1, font 7b, french 7b). To me they feel like a slightly less technical anasazi but much more comfortable. I have tried the Geshidos on and they didn't fit me very well, I would definitely try them on before buying, they also felt a bit clumpy to me.If you like the Bandits, the climbing depot are selling the velcros online for only £10 more than go outdoors are selling the geshidos.
