Just got a pair of these. I usually take UK size 5 trainers, got the climbing shoes in a 5.5. My big and second toes are pretty squished, though I have just managed to walk around the house for about an hour in them without crying...how likely are they to stretch? From reading the reviews people seem to have actually gone for a size down, but for the sake of my comfort is it worth switching them a size up?

I wear my velcros big enough to be uncomfortable but not painful on the first wearings. They seem to loosen and conform, more than actually stretch, thanks to the synthetic upper. So buy a size that feels fairly comfortable to you in the store, not one that is dramatically uncomfortable.

depending on what type of climbing you're doing, your toes should be just slightly bent to accomodate a tiny bit of strech. 5uk is about 6 us so 5.5 is a half size down for you. I had these shoes years ago a half size down from sneaker size and it was WAY too tight. I only kept wearing them cause I paid so much from them. Just cause you're not crying on the outside doesn't mean you aren't on the inside. Personally I'd consider stepping up a size.
