Title: shrinking feet
Post by: simone on October 16, 2003, 11:24:13 am

i've been climbin for the last year and i've found that my normal shoe size for my trainers etc.. has actually gone down a full size :shock:

has anyone else experienced such a change or am i wearing boots that are too small?

i started climbing when i was thirteen and my feet havent grown since.
i always used to have big feet for my age until then...now it is gettin embarassing :oops: i do wear pretty tight boots.

My feet grew at least a size when I had a big break from climbing. Changed shape too....

Mine shrink half a size a year. Used to be 10's - now I'm in 8's plus I've weird shapes feet that are incredible ugly. It's clear that tight climbing boots fuck your feet up
