Experts Tips for Every Climbers

Choosing the right climbing shoes can make or break your performance on the wall. Whether you’re bouldering indoors, tackling steep sport routes, or climbing long trad lines, your shoes need to match your climbing style, foot shape, and skill level.

👣 Fit Matters

Your climbing shoes should feel snug but not painfully tight. Look for a shape that mirrors your foot — aggressive downturns for steep routes, flatter profiles for comfort on long climbs.

🔄 Types of Climbing Shoes

  • Neutral: Ideal for beginners and all-day comfort.

  • Moderate: Great for sport climbing and crack routes.

  • Aggressive: Best for overhangs and advanced climbers seeking performance.

Closure system

Velcro, laces, or slip-ons? Velcro is quick and easy, laces offer precision, and slip-ons are great for sensitivity and training.
