Tips

For the best fit, consider sizing down half a size from your street shoe, as climbing shoes are designed to fit snugly. The hook-and-loop closure allows for easy on-and-off, making these shoes perfect for gym sessions where you switch between climbs frequently. To extend the life of the rubber, avoid walking on abrasive surfaces and store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
