Has the sizing changed?!

By lmw3080223 Ranked #391 - Rock Climbing Shoes June 6, 2010

I had a pair of these in size 35 (4.5) several years ago and they were so tight that they required a long break in period. But then they were awesome and I always wanted a second pair once I wore those ones out.

So I ordered another pair of size 35 (4.5) last month, and they were huge! And I wear a 6.5 street shoe! So, wondering if maybe this particular pair I received were mis-tagged, I went to my local climbing store to try on a size 35, and again the shoes were huge throughout the top of the foot and gap with even the slightest movement.

I'm going to return these ones and order a 34 (4.0) and see how those work out, but I was so disappointed that something with these shoes has changed over the past 4 years.
