  • Answer:

    It really depends on what you are climbing. For bouldering I recommend wearing evolvs and getting about two sizes smaller than your street shoes. For multi pitch climbing I recommend Five Ten or La Sportiva depending on which one fits your arch, since you have slender feet I would get La Sportiva and with these you want your toes to be a little bent that way you can grow into them.

I like Evolvs, because they are a little more comfortable than most others, having a bit of an insole to them, but it's all about your foot shape. For example, Scarpas have an in-turn, where it actually forces your toes toward the inside of your foot, and Anasazis have a super-extreme arch, that controts your foot into the shape of a rainbow. The best I hve seen are either Mad-Rocks, which tear up too quickly, La Sportivas, that seem to be the most "Normal" of all climbing shoes, or Evolvs, that I personally think are the best.

When I first started climbing, all my friends told me to buy some really tight shoes. Now that I have been climbing for 5 years or more, I have lots of different shoes. I now make sure I do not buy too tight of shoes, because of the type of climbing that I like to do which requires me to have them on for hours at a time. Tight shoes are for really hard edging, if you are not climbing that hard you would be better off feeling comfortable in your right size shoe, instead of a half size too small. Check out 5.10
