  A word of warning when buying rock shoes

  Rock shoes can vary considerably from standard shoe sizing, principally because thay are hand made. So you might need a size up or down from your normal shoe or you might not, it's hard to tell before trying them on. Also people think you need to buy your rock shoes a size smaller than your feet, but unless you are specifically searching for a super tight technical shoe all this will do is make you uncomfortable so don't bother.
  What we recommend is to buy 2 or 3 sizes of shoe at once and try them on at home to pick the best pair. Although this commits you to sending something back it avoids getting and sending back 2 or 3 pairs which could take 2 weeks and several trips to the post office.

  While Facewest encourages you to try your shoes on at home and get a feel for them, please do not be tempted to use them, not even just for a little test at the wall. We will only refund completely new and unused shoes which are returned to us.
