Select one from each category:

Flat
Flatter profile for a natural foot position, ideal for beginners. Great on slab, crack, and long multi-pitch routes where comfort and stability matter.

Moderate
Slight downturn offers a balance of comfort and performance. Suited for vertical faces and mildly overhung routes, a versatile step up for intermediates.

Aggressive
Aggressive downturn focusing power on the big toe, excelling on steep, overhanging routes and bouldering problems. They trade comfort for precision.

Soft
Excel in smearing and provide high sensitivity but wear out faster.

Stiff
Offer better support on small edges and last longer but lack sensitivity.

For newer climbers, stiffer shoes tend to be more durable as footwork develops.

Wide
Higher-volume shoes with a broader heel cup and toe box for a roomier fit.
≈3.9 - 5.9 inches / 99 - 120+ mm

Narrow
Lower-volume shoes with a snug heel cup and slim toe box for a precise fit.
≈3.3 - 3.8 inches / 84 - 98 mm

Egyptian
The big toe is the longest, with the other toes descending in a sloped pattern.

Greek
The second toe is longer than the big toe, with the rest of the toes gradually decreasing.

Roman
The first three toes are roughly equal length, with the last two shorter.

Most shoes accommodate multiple toe shapes.

Low: Up to $120
Good for beginners or those on a tighter budget.

Moderate: $120 - $180
A balanced mix of performance and cost.

High: $180+
Often featuring an aggressive fit, premium materials and advanced design.
