Rules: (interactive)


1) Be nice and; have funDoxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

That's something you could train. Gotta develop those mountain goat feet

Proper shoes for climbing are basically bare feet. You're issue will be your weight, but you'll lose that the second you start climbing. Go to a bouldering gym and give it a go again. It's extremely fun and sans the cost of the shoes cheap to do.

What? I tried climbing in toe shoes, would not recommend. Climbing shoes are designed to allow you to concentrate your weight onto the very tip of the toe. They're basically the opposite of barefoot, closer to ballet shoes.

When I mean toe shoes, I don't mean the ones that look like you got toes. I mean that they're not like running shoes or well any other shoe that has a hard sole. More like you said ballet shoes but more flex and grip.
