Suggestions for second pair of climbing shoes
Been climbing in Butora Senegis for about 3 months. Bought them pretty early once I realised I’d be climbing regularly and wanted to stop using rentals.
When I first tried them on, the US 10 felt like the better snug fit, but on small footholds I got a lot of pressure on my big toe knuckle, to the point where it felt borderline painful, so I went with a 10.5.
Now the 10.5 feels a bit too big. On slabs especially, the shoe can rotate a bit on my foot, and if the velcro isn’t super tight I can almost slip my heel out. If I do tighten it properly, the velcro sometimes comes undone during movement.
Just wondering if that kind of toe pressure in the smaller size is something people usually get used to, or if it sounds more like the shoe shape just doesn’t suit my foot.
Also keen for suggestions for a good second pair.
