2:09 as long as it's not a wellie xD idk.. if the wellie is tight enough.. who knows, maybe it'll work. the bottom rubber is quite stiff. tho it does have treads, idk, with good technique you might still be able to pull it off xD hahaha

Zofia, you are viewing religion through the wrong lens. The "dogmas" are the least important part, and are there just for the masses who are too uneducated and undisciplined to study the real underlying philosophy. Reducing religion to those parts is to miss the point entirely. As an analogy, many people need to use mathematics (I am a professional mathematician). Very few people will ever study the underlying logic, which is deep and elegant and beautiful. Epsilons and deltas, all kinds of different convergence, all the way down to set theory and its axioms, and down further to the axioms of logic itself, where it finally hits a self-referential dead end. Instead of really understanding, people are taught to follow "rules". If you put this thing here, and that thing there, it will solve the differential equation. Never mind what "this thing" or "that thing" actually are, or why you do this with them, but it will result in the solution if you obey the rules. This is what religious dogma is. If you are able to take the dogma on belief, and live as if it is real (many people cannot, myself included), then you get the effects that religion is designed to have on your feelings and life outlook. You follow the rules, you get the solution. But religion, like math, is so, so much deeper than those dogmatic rules. Like in mathematics, there IS a deeper and more beautiful explanation, there IS a deeper, intricate underlying philosophy. Not everyone is a scholar, and so not everyone will study it, and that's why the dogma is there. But to reduce religion to dogma is to reduce mathematics to rigid rules of manipulation. It is to miss the point entirely. Many atheists reduce religion to this weak strawman before they knock it over. They are looking right past the most important parts; it is no wonder they see no worth in it. A good first example of this is the book "The Catechism of the Catholic Church". This book is first layer of the more complex underlying philosophy. It talks about what God "is", and their answer is a far, far cry from "a man in the sky". It is much closer to "whatever the organizing principle is that shows itself through the fact that the natural world is unbelievably full of patterns, right down to the laws of physics themselves". Almost all academics I've met admit that the patterned nature of everything is unbelievable and mystical. What they don't know is that they agree with Catholics on this description.

I know this video is from 6 years ago, but I do hope I might get an answer: I bought my first pair of aggressive shoes (online, since there is no store nearby), and followed all the checkpoints of feet type, size charts, etc. I ended up with a size 37EU (same as my streetwear size) and fit for roman feet. As soon as I got into the shoes, my toes were dying. I couldn't stand on it at all. I suppose this means theyre too tight right? Or does this mean, you gotta break m in. Like where is the limit of "tight shoes"? The weird thing is, everyone who bought the shoes said they downsized at least by 1. Like im so confused. Everything fit well in this shoe, except for the toes. How do people downsize if mine are already scrumbled up as much as they can be at my same streetwear size? Anyway, long question short- how do you know if the shoe is too tight or if it's a break in matter?

Thank you for creating this and sharing your thoughts. As a physician who works closely with children, it has changed my perspective on having kids and I now believe in the system of antinatalism. There is no good reason, morally or ethically, to have a child in our current overpopulated, malicious world. It only creates more overall suffering. For those who really love children, they would choose to adopt one or more of the millions of homeless and foster children out there. Wanting your “own” child is an extremely selfish, but normally taught idea. I realize this is a very hard truth for most people and they will simply dismiss this idea altogether. Thank you for being conscientious enough to consider this path of life.

In case you don't know, the audio on these is always very quiet.

Excellent information, clearly given. No clever video shots, no background music, just a clear explanation of a confusing subject. Really useful.

Depending on the brand and material I usually size down 1-.5 size from my street shoe size. 36EU is my sweet spot, tight but not painful. Currently breaking in my Ocun Nitros and it’s the same, uncomfortable but not painful. I was told that the best way to find your shoe size in climbing. It should feel weirdly tight but not so painful you can’t stand or climb. ❤ Cool video! Thanks for sharing

I like my kids Sox on my feet they make the pressure points not hurt.

Pain In the foot you mean

the random cat fight lmao

hey thismwas a very informative video. thank you. I looked around and this video was the most in depth

Thank you, this was helpful for picking solution size

so you climbed morning wood in the magic wood, that is kind of funny

Nice one !

scarpa for a wide foot all the way

nice ! fun little boulder ! thanks for the link :)

The knee.

THE KNEE 😬

i need to try this !

Don’t down size 5 sizes

I felt my toes were screaming when I tried a smaller size, just couldn't "stand" those ones. Eventually, I bought the size near my sneakers, even though I still felt my toes squeeze together in the front of the shoes.

Thanks from Mexico

I’m size 9 and I have to wear anything from size 10-11.5 depending on make and model. I can’t go lower bc I have a skin graft on my heel. Also my feet are very wide for a size 9 so going a smaller size is just not possible. My current scarpa veloce are 2.5 sizes bigger than my normal shoe and it fits like a glove

I had to buy 2 sizes above my walk around shoes. You lot are crazy.

"good footwork can be executed pretty much in whatever, as long as it's not a welly..." caver: hold my beer :D

It was really nice video I wish you had made more, very interesting person

Best video ever! Me as starting out boulderer had no clue what size of the shoes to get, your tips made it so much easier to understand now :)

I have a pair that is too small :( thanks for the suggestion

Really good, you should do more "tech" talks

Awesome video. Great info. Thanks for the post!! :)

Thanks for your video!! I just bought some Katakis in size 36 (street size is 37) and they are so painful to put on, mostly because of the shape holding mechanism which presses on your achilles' heel (gave me an instant foot cramp first time I put it on). But i've read everywhere that they stretch a lot since they're unlined leather, and they're already a bit wide (I have very narrow feet) so I don't want to size up. I was hesitant to wear them in the shower but I'll try the plastic bag trick and the hairdryer trick too, just wondering if that's not going to somehow melt/damage the glue?

Terrific video, thanks Zofia!

Zofia, this is an amazing video! Thanks a lot!.. I have a question... My street shoes size are 41 and I bought a pair of climbing shoes with the same size (41) but they hurt a lot (A LOT!) especially when I walk.. Is it normal? Should I break them? or should I change them?.. Can someone help me?

been bouldering in trad shoes since 2003 :p - great advice - comfort over pain anyday!

Dont go too hard with the hair dryer. The glues they use in shoes are susceptible to too much heat and may cause the rubber to peal from the upper

Thank you for this. Getting my first pair soon and was so confused by everyone's advice but you've managed to clear things up for me :)

I think the main reason for getting tight shoes is that they just last longer in terms of stretching

I laugh so hard with the cats...XD

Good video. When you say shoes stretch it should be said that the sole don't get longer but rather the upper stretches which can make the shoe more bareable. It will not feel the same as a bigger shoe.

Cool video, thanks for the info! I subbed :)

really...?!? i just saw one of the if not THE best video about climbingshoes (and i´ve seen a lot lately!)... ...just to find out that that´s the only video you have online...!?! ... ...please... ...do some more...<3

When you say “tight” do you mean in the length, too? I just bought some beginners shoes and my big toe is verrrry tight in there, but not bent, my other toes are slightly clawed

I love the ocun ozones! I'm on my second pair of these shoes and they continue to shine!!

more videos please😍

very useful video

Good video,you should do some more.

Thank you for this really helpful

Just bought my first shoes the scarpa origin and im ok with the crush its just my left heel is a tad sore .the hair dryer and the plastic bag trick sounds awesome off i go so excited thank you. I think your video was awesome thank you so much. Big love from uk cheers

Nice! Great climb so fluid!
