Climbing Shoes | adidas Australia

Q: Do beginners need climbing shoes?

Beginners need neutral climbing shoes to get a feel for the sport. A neutral climbing shoe has a flat to mild curve. As you gain climbing experience, you may want a more aggressive shoe, depending on your climbs.

Q: What is an aggressive climbing shoe?

An aggressive climbing shoe has a pronounced downturned curve, designed to strengthen experienced climbers’ feet on single-pitch climbs and small holds. Its curved shape makes it less ideal for multi-pitch climbs and precision foot placement. Aggressive climbing shoes often have an asymmetrical shape to help with precise placement of the foot.
