I am pretty sure that my feet are of equal size and I never had size problems with climbing or any other shoes, until I got Kumo rock. The left shoe is narrower than the right one and it really hurts.

I use this shoe for gym climbing and bouldering about 2-3 times per week. Its a decent shoe. Its very comfortable and rugged, but does not grip the wall as well as other shoes I've had.

Great service arrived in a couple days. The shoe was tight but after wearing a couple times has improved my climbing and are super comfortable. I also saw these at a much higher price somewhere else so feel like I won a good deal on all accounts.

I bought these for my wife so she could enjoy a little climbing when I go out. I got her a half size small and she says they are a little tight. They should stretch since they are all leather. I have heard from fellow climbers these shoes stretch a lot, so the snug fit in the beginning is what you want. We'll see how they hold up. Can't complain about the price though.....

This shoe is a great buy, beginners somewhat, intermediate for sure. These are made in China instead of Italy, for a realistic price.

I have used these primarily indoors since I bought them (about a month ago), and they are a little slick indoors. They do hold edges well though, because of the hard rubber. From my experience with La Sportiva, I am really excited about getting these outdoors. As far as fit, they are true to size, but expand very slightly when you are really working hard and they warm up. Overall, very impressed with fit and traction.
Delivery was quicker than expected.

shoes are great, my climbing has improved from the worn-out shoes I was using
from Hudson, WI on 4/7/2008
Great shoe, first couple times out with them i thought they were too small so i took a shower with them on and from then on feels like im wearing socks def. would recommend this shoe

This is a great shoe for bouldering. I would say the only con is that the toe is a little wider than you usual so you really need to be precise on your foot placement but other than that these shoes are phenomenal for the price. I would def. recommend!

Great fit, even for my wide foot, and easy to get on and off. Fit a little big, so I would go a half size smaller than normal. Good inside and out for general climbing.

these shoes have a great feel to them they are very comfortable from the start when i first got them i walked around the house with them for an hour and they felt great... though when i got on the wall with them the first time i had a bit of a problem getting to stick the foot holds, though i guess that could be expected with new shoes but now im fine with them
