Choosing shoes for my wide feet
I have pretty wide, big feet and have narrowed down my options, but need help and recommendations on choosing some for Trad and bouldering:
Trad climbing:
I want to do the La sportiva Katana Lace, is this a bad choice or will I be happy?
Bouldering:
My choice is the Scarpa Instinct VS, but I’m torn on it because it has no laces. Will I be happy with it? I see there are Instinct lace ups too, but how different are they?
If anyone has any other suggestions for wide feet, please leave a comment.
I’ve leaned towards Scarpa because it feels way more comfortable.
