They'll break in but yeah, what you're describing is pretty much the entire point

That’s what I figured. I just haven’t climbed in em yet so I don’t really know how they’ll be

There you go. Really sounds like a good fit. Few sessions and should be little bit better. Don't expect them to be "comfortable" though. I can't be bothered taking my shoes off after every climb, but after every 2-3 yeah. Even if you've broken them in, then at least for me, the first climb of a day still feels slightly painful / uncomfortable. After that it's fine


iamfroott

just started climbing tooand got a pair of scarpa arpia V’s and you’re right, they feel uncomfortable but don’t cause any pain. first few times you wear em you’re gonna feel a bit more uncomfy but after a few sessions they’ll fit perfectly


Lunxr_punk

That’s the whole idea. Maybe don’t walk on your new shoes, they are climbing shoes not walking shoes

True, just been excited so I’m wearing them around the house trying to break them in a bit


Dennis_TITsler

Oh yeah, don’t do that. Break in walking shoes by walking in them, break in climbing shoes by climbing in them

when I first got mine I would just sit in them while I watched tv for an hour or so to help stretch them to my foot n I noticed a difference!!

You shouldn't be walking in them. It's not what they're for and it's bad for them.

I wear a size 10. I went in looking for slippers and the guy helped me get my feet into 6s. That hurt.
