Had my son at the rock gym today and told him if he cleared a 5-5 on top rope I'd get him some shoes. 1 panel short!
He had on 5-10's size 7.5.. Should I go for something in a size 8 to allow growth? Next size up from a 7 on these is an 8.5.. To much?

i would think so you dont want a full size bigger on climbing shoes but it depends on how much he climbs and how fast his feet are growing. Does he climb everyday? get shoes that fit. Does he climb once a month and in 3 months his feet will be a 8.5 then get the 8.5. you want climbing shoes to be tight and responsive.
