Your cart is empty.Black Diamond's Momentum Climbing Shoe balances comfort with performance to help us learn how to climb comfortably. Black Diamond made this shoe's upper out of a unique knit that boosts breathability without compromising durability. This enhanced breathability also cuts the stench that standard leather climbing shoes excrete in your car, closet, or wherever you store your climbing shoes. Since this isn't a leather or synthetic leather climbing shoe, the Momentum won't stretch as much as usual climbing shoes, so we recommend getting this pair in your street shoe size even though your friends are telling you to size down. The NeoFriction rubber sole is also unique in that it's molded--as opposed to the usual cutting from one sheet of rubber--to the shoe in order to increase longevity and ensure traction on greasy, plastic footholds.

Well, I went ahead and gotten 11 and guess what that didn’t do it those are still too small luckily these ones try first by later so I guess I’m sending these back and getting an 11 1/2 and a half to get a size 10 do not fit!?

Working on, I think, my 4th pair now. I love these babies for laps and just generally comfortable climbing sessions I’ll use my aggressive, sticky shoes to figure out a route, then perfect it in these. I’m up to almost all consistent 5.10+ climbing now, and have managed 1 5.11 in this line of shoes.These ARE a beginner shoe, but as you get better, they will take up you to at least 5.11 climbs with good technique. Excellent smearing shoe.The lace-up versions will fit better, due to the lacing, but that can be a time-waster when you have the quick on/off of Velcro slippers. I have found that these shoes fit true to size without socks, and will probably be closer to the right snugness with socks, or, just go down 1/2 size if your feet are going commando…

Great! Comfortable shoe for leisure climbing. Toes wore out after 2 years.Good shoe for beginner but wouldn't recommend for an intermediate level.

I love these shoes. I had to toy around with the sizing for a little bit. Don’t expect perfection on your first try, especially if you are new to climbing. Overall they are great shoes and hold up well. They will tend to stink over time but a pair of boot bananas take care of it!

I ordered these for myself, and they’re so much better than my last climbing shoes which were so tight that I was only able to climb for about 20 mins before I was in excruciating pain. I wear a size 11 in women’s for reference and I got these in a men’s size 10 and they’re great! A little bit of space in the heel when I’ve got my weight on my toes, but I’ve not had my issues with them and they’re very comfortable to climb in!

These are great! Synthetic/Vegan. Don’t waste your time with aggressive shoes unless you’re climbing V9. I climb V4/5 bouldering and these haven’t skipped a beat. I’m replacing my old pair because I climbed a hole through the toe after 10 months use in a gym about 2.5 days/week. Great for outdoor use too!

Climbing shoes should fit tight, they are not meant to walk around! I bought size 10.5 and I am a size 10 (43) in regular shoes. So I went a half size up; I’m new to climbing. ALSO: the shoe is very tight when you first put it on, when you begin to climb that’s when you really know you got the right size! I know this because I compared with different size hope this helps
