Shoes Run Very Small

I wear a size 7 and ordered a size 8. The shoe was so small I could not put my foot in the shoe. Returned to the store for a credit which I received.

Extremely Narrow

I got 3 sizes (each a half size apart) to try and I couldn't fit into any of them with my E width feet (wider than normal). The length seems to be accurate when I put my foot up to the outside of the shoe, but the width very narrow. Since the bottom material doesn't stretch, it's impossible to even get my foot halfway into the shoe even with the Velcro straps completely opened up. I think these might still be too narrow for those with regular width feet as well. The quality of the shoe seems nice, but one of my pairs had one of those store tags on it still that needs the special machine to remove.

Far Too Small!!

I have small feet and these 6.5 are ridiculously tiny. Not true to size at all.

Great Buy!! Top Quality Climbing Shoes.

Was looking at these at multiple stores and Dicks had the best deal on them. Great quality and were shipped very quickly.

They Run Super Small

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can wear a size 9 W I. Evolv shoe but I can’t even fit my whole foot in a 9.5 W black diamond. I was disappointed because I loved the color. Am returning to size up. Maybe size up two sizes.

Ignored Reviews.. Learned My Lesson

I'm new to climbing. With these being on Sale and a highly recommended climbing shoes(from what ive read), I thought they'd be good first climbing shoes. WRONG. They are good length wise my big toe reaches the end. Actual room for my foot? None. I do have wide feet? But these feel like I trying to wear a size 6 rubber shoe, I wear a size 8. I couldn't even walk in these. I walked around for 2 minutes before I ripped these torture shoes off. They dig into your heels like crazy too. I had really high hopes but.. I'm going to have to return these 😅

Good Shoe But Sized Really Small

I really like the shoes, I'm just getting into climbing but they are definitely better than rentals. They are sized really small. I went into a different outdoor store to try on a few different sizes of the same shoe and ended up really liking a 7.5 so I ordered them through Dicks because they were on sale. 7.5 was way to small and ended up going up to a size 9 to get the same fit. Same shoe just sized weird. (Context: I wear a size 8 vans).

Good Shoe For Price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was an avid climber 30 years ago, and I am not getting back into it. I loved my old school shoes and could smear anything. These do make my feet sweat more then I would like.

Great Shoe For Beginners

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone new to climbing these are exactly what I needed. They were comfortable right away and after a couple week of climbing they still look brand new. I have narrow feet but with the adjustable velcro and soft upper, they fit well.

Great Overall Beginner/ Neutral Shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had two pairs of momentum climbing shoes before and they’ve always been very durable and a great overall neutral shoe. Whether using indoors or outdoors, great quality from black Diamond

Great Beginner Shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i went a size up from my street shoe size and they fit perfectly after a few wears. they’re very comfortable for longer gym sessions and all-day wear.

Eh

These are okay for trying out for beginner.. the sizing was hard to find a good fit I went up one shoe size from what I have in regular shoes and it’s painfully but sizing one more up was way to big.. back of one shoe torn my ankle up and the back felt shorter then the other one digging into the back and one shoe ft way off from the other one with the rubber. Idk they didn’t work to well for me

Super Stiff And Uncomfortable

These were the first climbing shoes I ever bought. I got 2 pairs in two different sizes trying to find the right size. I wear an 8.5/9 in regular shoes, so those were the two sizes I tried in these. They were both super stiff and uncomfortable. They were extremely tight in the toes but had extra room in the heal. Maybe they’re just not the right fit for my feet. I ended up returning both pairs and going to REI to try on different shoes. There was a night and day difference in the comfort between these and the ones I ended up getting (La Sportiva Tarantulace).
