Hi everybody, I am a 16 year old trying to introduce some friends into bouldering. I wanted to get them some shoes for Christmas, but looked for a couple months to no avail. My budget is really tight (my only income is a small blacksmithing business I am trying to expand), and I can't go much past $30 for a pair of shoes, preferably less. (Maybe the fact that they are group to be used by a group of kids will influence your pricing?) We don't need the nicest shoes, but I also don't want to buy them junk. If you would throw away the shoe, please don't offer it to me. 

What I am looking for: 

  • Sizes 41, 41.5, 44, 44.5, 45, (or any common shoe size that you have laying around you don't want)
  • Slight to moderate downturn
  • Moderate asymmetry
  • Preferably slipper or lace, not bulky Velcro 
  • Not a beginner or "rental" type shoe
  • Enough rubber for at least some climbing, no big holes

If I don't sound like a teen with all these details, it is because I am a nerd and have done way to much research.  

Thank you all so much for considering!

Hey Eli, send me a DM. I have a few size 41 shoes I would get rid of for cheap. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
