Climbing Shoes
How to choose climbing shoes that suit me?
The climbing shoes are the ideal footwear for the rock climbing and gym climbing for its great adhesion and precision. There are many types of climbing shoes according to their type of shape, their symmetry, materials, etc. In fact, the wide variety of climbing shoes on the market makes it a difficult choice.If you need advice to choose your climbing shoes, you can call us at 977 82 12 32 or, better yet, come to our shop in Cornudella del Montsant (Tarragona) to try them.
Factors to consider when buying climbing shoes
Choose size
One of the factors to which we must pay greater attention is the choice of size. You must fit the climbing shoe tight to your feet to assure a good subjection and to give precision to the edging. We must accept that the climbing shoes are not comfortable. However, if you fit the climbing shoe too tight it will hurt and prevent us from enjoying 100% of the climb. In terms of sizes, each brand has its own dimensions, so the sizing can change in one or more points according to the manufacturer.
Arching
The curvature of the tip or the type of arching of the foot of the cat plays an important role in climbing. When the foot of the cat has a tip that ends down, the climber can hold more accurately to small strips. It is said that the more arched the cat's foot, the more aggressive it is. The extreme tonnage, therefore, is intended for advanced climbers.
Cambered
Flat Profile
The asymmetry
Depending on the curvature of the sole and the shape of the rand, we say that a climbing shoe has more or less asymmetry (or that they are more or less aggressive). Usually, asymmetrical climbing shoes are more uncomfortable but they have better edging and benefits, exerting all the force in the big toe. However, if you are starting or looking for comfort, we recommend climbing shoes with less asymmetry.
Asymmetric
Symmetric
The soleAbout soles, there are different types of rubbers and thickness. A climbing shoe with a stiffer or thicker sole will be ideal for leaning on crimps and small holes, while the softer or thinner ones offer greater sensitivity and adhesion to the rock.
Material
Usually the climbing shoe of leather yield more than the synthetic ones. This is a factor to take into account when choosing the leather climbing shoes size, since we must choose some tighter ones, thinking that later they will yeld more.

Running shoes

Walking Boots
Trekking boots and shoes
Hiking slippers are those that protect us from the adversity of the road thanks to its grip, stability and protection of the ankle in case of twisting. They also provide the comfort and comfort necessary after several hours of walking as well as avoid possible wounds caused by friction.
The great diversity of lands and terrain we can find (sand, rock, leafy paths ...) makes it necessary to have different types of trekking shoes. We can find boots, half-boots and slippers of various characteristics, according to the way we will walk. It is recommended, for example, to choose a high-grade trekking boot for those unstable and high mountain trails; In contrast, some slippers for short and flat trekking.
The type of mountain where we will go hiking is one of the most important factors to choose your boot or slipper, but not the only one. The type of activity, physical form, foot morphology, and even meteorology in the area are also important factors to take into account when choosing a trekking shoe.
In Goma2 we work with the best brands of sneakers for trekking and mountain to offer you the quality you deserve.

Mountaineering boots
Mountaineering boots
Alpine and ice climbing boots. We have a selection of high quality footwear from La Sportiva, Scarpa and Garmont. Take advantage until March 31st to buy mountain boots with a 20% discount.
Having comfortable mountain boots that fit snugly at the foot is key to enjoying nature. The footwear of mountain will vary according to the type of route that we are going to carry out: mostly by dirt road, by rock, more technical, with greater or lesser duration....
Tips for choosing mountain boots:
A good fit is essential: When trying some mountain boots, we should feel that the foot is tight, leaving a space at the front of the foot and avoiding rubbing that could cause blisters. One tip is to try the boots at the end of the day, which is when the foot tends to be most swollen.
Outsole: It can be rubber or polyurethane. Rubber has a good grip and durability, so they are ideal for long routes, but as a disadvantage, it is something heavier than other materials. Polyurethane, on the other hand, also has a good grip and is lighter, although abrasion resistance is not as good, so lighter use is recommended.
Fabrication materials: Although leather is usually more durable, synthetic materials are lighter and more flexible. They also protect against cold, snow and rain. Make sure they're waterproof, though.
Reinforcements in the toe: When walking on the mountain, blows on the rock with the toe of the boot are common. To avoid premature wear of shoes, it is advisable to choose boots with reinforced toecaps.
