I dig 'em

I just started climbing recently so I don't know alot, but I ended up buying these shoes for my first pair of climbing shoes. I wear a 9.5-10 street shoe and I bought these shoes in a 42 Euro/9 US. At first they killed my feet and made me want to knaw off my feet at the ankles, but I was told this is normal for climbing shoes. Sure enough, after only a few sessions on an indoor wall they started to feel much better. Thus far they continue to get more comfortable everytime I put them on. I think I could have even gone another size or two lower if I were really hardcore, but comfort and enjoyment is more important at this point. They grip really well for working on more technical footwork or for scrambling up the wall in any which way (I do more of the latter). All in all, I give the Scorpions two thumbs up!
