Hurts So Good

After a frustrating journey with different shoes, I think I have finally found the ones for me with the Miuras! I wear an 8.5 in regular street shoes and I got these in a 37, so I sized down 2.5 sizes. So basically, my feet are in agony right now as a break in these shoes! But I know that it is going to be totally worth it once I break these in because even through my agony, I can already tell that I am trusting these shoes the way I need to in order to climb as hard as I want to.

Also, I have EXTREMELY narrow feet. This is the main reason I decided to go with the Miuras, because before this I tried the Katanas and they were NOT a good fit for someone with narrow feet. Having a shoe with laces instead of velcro is ideal so that I can get these shoes as tight as I want to with out any weird bunching or gaps from having velcro straps.

So, even though breaking these in is painful, I am so happy because I finally have a shoe I can trust to climb as aggressive as I want!
