    I'm not sure that climbing shoes in general can really be classified as women and men specific, although I know that they're often marketed that way. Adam Ondra recently was wearing a "women's" solution comp on his left foot and a "men's" solution comp on his right foot for a boulder problem. La Sportiva shoes in particular have the same volume for the same size of both models ("men's theory" vs "women's theory" or "men's solution comp" vs "women's solution comp" etc.) The difference, at least with La Sportiva, is only in the softness of the shoe/sole thickness. Other brands do have the lower volume shoes marketed as the women's shoes or simply low volume. But you see both genders using the same shoes. For me, anyways, it's more about what works well for you and what can you get.

      I kinda figured that's what he'd say when he brought it up - figured he wore them for the sensitivity...but sizing and availability challenges make sense as well. Often there are more "women's" items on sale in the outdoor industry - I've often looked for them just to save money but usually the shoes are too small for me.

    Just swapped my solutions for theories and I'm in love.
    Having climbed several months and only indoors, the only difference I notice between them and solutions is they are at least 30% more comfortable.
    I found the toebox on the solutions not rly fuck up my big toe in several ways (and i tried 3 sizes of solution). Theories feel similar but the rubber is so soft, they seem to allow for more movement when needed without having to be permanently stretched.
    Its rly the only shoe I can tolerate with P3 and much more forgiving than either models of miura vs, skwama, or solutions. Havent tried futuras yet tho.
    Thanks for the advice!

    Very interesting what you are saying about i.e. the Skwama.
    For me, the heelhook does not hold at all, I only use them as a slab shoe and for comfy indoor climbs.
    For anything that I need to stand on an edge or heel/toe hook I use the Scarpa Instinct VS. Its until now the only shoe that actually fit my foot

    Nice video !
    My solutions comp lace juste broke and I have a few questions After trying some shoes in a shop :
    - i felt like futura was A LOT more confortable and soft than theories (i don't like heelcup of skwamas so it's a no go for me); also theories seems to fit smaller; how does theories stretch and keep their edging power with time ?
    - i felt that theories were more precise than futura, however I'm afraid that it theories edge will not stand...
    - how do you repair the lace-up of futura and solution ?

    @Mitzbergatc 2 года назад +20

    Just a fact check, they all use the same rubber (which isn't stiff). They use the Grip 2 rubber, it being the soft rubber of Vibram. What makes one shoe stiffer than the other is the midsole. So saying this rubber is very stiff, it's inaccurate. Some might have 3 or 3,5mm of rubber, which allows you to have more or less sensitivity.

    • @tomasalonsonunezfigueroa4719
      @tomasalonsonunezfigueroa4719 Год назад +4

      Well, a thicker sole is stiffer than a thinner sole when they're made of the same material. One thing is the stiffness of the material, and other thing is the stiffness of the element (the sole or the shoe in this case).

    I really wanted to like the skwamas when I got them, but funny enough I really didn't like the heel on them. The heel is super stiff and has this reinforcing "bar" of rubber, which would probably be great if it fit my heel, but the heel cup is a good bit too big so I always felt my heel moving around inside the shoe, even when i wasnt heel hooking. I really prefer the way the heel is built in the futuras which allows it to collapse a bit, which sounds bad but just helps fit my foot better.

    I wished I would finally find a shoe that is normal/high volumen in the toes area, but has a low instep and very small volume in the heel... that's my main struggle: it's either excrutiating pain in the toes and kind of ok heel (but never a bomber heel.... there is just always a big of dead space) or the toes feel ok (uncomfortable, but I can at least step on foothold without a lot of pain) but the heel is absolutely baggy and my heelhooks never stick....

    Hello! Loved this shoe review video! Also, in need of help regarding sizing!
    My street shoe size is UK8
    Currently wearing scarpa drago UK6.5 (tightest fit according to bananafingers website shoe calculator)
    It is extremely tight and i think i would prefer a UK7 instead
    The shoe calculator suggested me a UK6 in the solution comp women’s for a tight-ER fit instead, would that be ideal?

    • @zacharylaschober
      @zacharylaschober 2 года назад +1

      If you’re feeling the Drago needed to be a half size up, I would say this is correct. Most folks for a similarly snug fit through the life of the shoe should be about a full euro size down from a Drago for a Solution. be mindful, Scarpa shoes use euro sizing which usually doesn’t align, no shoe sizing standards do, thus using the manufacturer’s standard is the best way. You can get a few millimeters of difference (about half a euro size) just having a US based company and an EU based company converting into UK even though charts would say that is the “conversion”.

    • @huaij
      @huaij 2 года назад

      I generally find la sportiva requires going down 0.5 - 1 eu size vs scarpa. I went 0.5 down to 38.5 for a pair of solution comps vs my dragons (which were super super tight) I think for you 0.5 EU from your current dragons should be fine. I would use EU sizing - generally 3 EU sizes = 1 UK / US size

      My whole quiver of shoes comes from Scarpa. Isn’t uncommon for most climbers after maybe the twentieth pair of shoes to find a preferred brand and diverge off from a familiar model. Chimeras were mine, and now the rest of the line is always in relation to my Chimeras. About the only time I know athletes to head off brand is to use TC Pros for El Cap, and tends to be hush hush.

    its useless to talk about stiff or soft shoes without telling your weight. Its not about the brand or model, it should be about your feet. Your footshape is important to know. Are they wide or thin, high or flat? Egyptian feet (big toe longest), greek feet (2nd toe longest) or roman feet? Female/low volume versions of some shoe models use the softer grip/2 rubber than the stiffer edge rubber from vibram. Some brands got their own rubber like Boreal, 5ten, evolve. For me - weighting ~75kg - all these models are soft shoes. I would not use or recommend any of them for edging. These are soft, performance shoes for overhang climbing/bouldering in high climbing grades. I tested the theory&skwama models. Theory is just ridiculous soft, too sensitive and can be painfull for wide roman feet. Skwama are good for wide, flat feet and they are soft. I still prefer the stiffer edge rubber otaki model as a comfortable allrounder (wide, flat, egyptian/greek shape). A stiff shoe and my model for mostly vertical rock climbing is the miura VS (normal, but high volume, egyptian shape). Similar would be the boostic from Scarpa. For bouldering/gym I use the boreal satori because that shoe is super confortable, soft and the rubber is very durable. For thin flat feet the Tenaya models are absolutely amazing in comfort and btw having the best velcro system of all climbing shoes. Scarpa has a great chart about their models: stiffness, feet shape&form and purpose are listed.

    • @tiamat87
      @tiamat87 8 дней назад

      @@beueuehebedududhdh Im saying the weight influences the feeling whether a shoe is stiff or soft: The feeling is realtive. Shoemodel X will feel way different for a 50kg than a 90kg climber. The shoe last is the same, the midsole and the rubber thickness too. When you put pressure on your toes the shoe will bend way more for the heavier person. Making it feel softer for heavy people and stiffer for light climbers. smaller edges will hurt your toes more, the less supportive your shoe is.
      Skwama might be a good example: it is generally regarded as a soft shoe, because it has a soft rubber and a flexible 2 piece last. Most light climbers will realise that there are softer shoe models and might argue its "stiff" but for a heavy person a Skwama might already be too soft. Just take a belayer sandbag onto your harness and try it out. And those just weighting 15kg usually.
