I use my Skwama for a month, mostly indoor bouldering and outdoor rope climbing. My street shou size is 46 and i choose 44 from this shoe. It fits really well, but we have used to each other. After 20-30 hours of climbing, start to have more and more comforatable, the heel fits perfectly, however it press my index nail a bit...maybe it's just for my feet. I think i choose a really good shoe, and i love it!
