How we test climbing shoes

Here at EdiconnectShops, we provide climbers of all levels with a comprehensive repertoire of athletic footwear for their specific needs. We’ve tested all types of shoes each leather to get you updated on the latest releases and highly rated models currently available. Here’s how we approach it:

  • We procure all the pairs of climbing kicks from the Black Diamond brand. We spend the money from our own pocket to ensure that all our reviews are 100% honest and objective.
  • We wear the BD shoes to assess their real-life performance in actual trad climbing or bouldering. We write about our personal experiences and insights about the shoes. We do a battery of tests to evaluate the model’s strengths (and weaknesses). We put in hours of climbing outdoors or in the gym to determine the footwear’s out-of-box fit, break-in period, stickiness, climbing and edging precision, versatility, durability, and more.
  • We get a clearer and more fact-based perspective from the tests we perform inside our lab. We even split the shoes in half to keep all things seen and ready for scrutinization.
