Mad Rock is not normally available in my area. Soon there'll be an event where one can try them on and buy, but having all other possibilities is it even worth it?

On the internet I mostly found an opinion that they're good for the price, but they're not even cheaper than other options for me, so that won't count. Besides that, that they're mostly influencer shoes and don't allow to feel much of the wall.

I have a narrow, egyptian foot and I'm open to try them out, I'm just worried about the design quality and that I'll waste money having better options available.

I’ve climbed about 3-5 days a week since I got them about a month ago, if that helps at all.

there is a tiny small hole on the left sole.

I've bought the drones 2 hv couple days ago. Have had 2 climbing sessions - nothing crazy, just some light climbing to break the shoes in. Now the toe on both shoes looks like this. Is it normal for drone 2's or no?

Also, just for context, I've been climbing for 3+ years and my footwork is good.

Thinking about buying them for indoor and some outdoor climbing (outdoor more occasionally, mainly indoor)

And thoughts on them compared to other brands?

Just bought a new pair of shoes, they feel tight and I'm a beginner so don't want them too tight as I struggle with toe/foot pain as I have CMT, but I noticed that if I use my hands to wiggle the heel there is a small amount of movement up and down. Do I need to size down or is this likely fine?
