Great shoes

By Ian Ranked #531 - Climbing Shoes May 1, 2009

After reading so many mixed opinions / experiences about how to size a climbing shoe, I took a chance and originally bought these 3 sizes down (like La Sportiva says so). Man did they hurt, I could climb in them, but for a primary gym shoe... dropping off a 15ft boulder problem left me wincing in pain.

I quickly returned them and went 1 1/2 sizes down and now they're almost perfect. Just read the description for the performance of this shoe - it lives up to it. Just make sure you size it right! I'm a 39.5 (mens) and my pair are a 38. Definitely wouldn't go any bigger.
