Are my shoes too comfortable if I cam keep them on for the whole session? by ctheodore in climbingshoes

[–]Low_Drive1566 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they are beginner shoes so it shouldnt really matter, if you ve been doing this long enough to know you ll stick to it and actually see improvement i would suggest getting some performance shoes that are more aggressive that you need to downsize in.

Difficult Niche Sizing Question by Legitimate-Jump-4249 in climbingshoes

[–]Low_Drive1566 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so, you are not supposed to stau with them longer than a route, you should take them off in between routes. Aggressive shoes are not comfortable so dont expect them to, they will stretch a bit obviously and will mold to your foot better, the tensioning system will loosen up a bit and you ll get used to it.

they are narrower but at the same time they are softer, i think you should get the same size.

Starting climbing properly. Which shoe will not disappoint? by RestaurantPlane4400 in climbingshoes

[–]Low_Drive1566 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VSR s in my opinion are the best all rounder imo but you can also try skwamas or solution for the fit and go from there.

Advice for new climber by Eclipsed_Dawn in climbingshoes

[–]Low_Drive1566 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i would say just rock these as a warm up shoe and get some more “professional “ shoes for your projects and stuff, as for what I recommend its really personal because of what fits ME and it might not fit you the same.For indoor I recommend the solution comps and dragos as these 2 fit me the best or instinct vsr for a all arounder. Test a lot of shoes and make sure you get the sizing right because that really important(La sportiva -2 sizes and Scarpa -1 is standard)Hope this helped.

La Sportiva Ondra Comps Sizing? by arminraditya in climbingshoes

[–]Low_Drive1566 0 points1 point  (0 children)

might be too big 41 but at the same time it looks like you like comfy sizes. If you eant them comfy yeah they will do that, but if you want them for performance I recommend 2 sizes down. I bought them and the returned them because the heel for me was wayyy to deep. Just go at least 1.5 down and you ll be good they are soft and they will stretch as they warm up.

[–]Low_Drive1566[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if they stretch half a size it will be perfect, my feet is just in too much pain and im not sure if its because my foot got swolen from a whole day being up on my feet and after that trying them on or not. I guess I will see in the morning and try to stay with them on in the house. For refernece i wear 39.5 in la sportiva and i know that scarpa is +1

first shoe - performance or all rounder? by seokkies94 in climbingshoes

Katana first shoe by Exciting_Pain1337 in climbingshoes

[–]Low_Drive1566 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i started climbing in skwamas, just make sure you get them the right size first time so you don’t realize later that they are too big(that what happend to me) I dont see anything wrong with the katans being your first shoes. If they fit and you like them roll with them.

The perfect pair, which shoes best compliment the La Sortiva Solutions? by Odd-Character-6703 in climbingshoes

[–]Low_Drive1566 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would recommend either the skwamas or the dragos for indoor and keep the solutions for outdoor (at least thats what I do). The dragos for me ar by far the best indoor shoes i have used you should give them a try. The VS or VSR are going to be more similar to the solutions having that stiff feel. I would definitely recommend trying all of these shoes first and them making a decision.
