Amusing shoe review

"I did all my research and ordered my size. They were so small that I couldn't get them on (think 3-4 sizes too small). I was disappointed that there was no mention of the size difference in the description. I am new to climbing (indoor) so I am unaware if an understood "order three sizes up" exists. Other than that they look great and I will be ordering a new *larger* pair. I'm giving it 2 stars, not because they aren't solid quality, but rather so people will read about the size. "

Edit - to clarify - this is NOT MY REVIEW

if this is your first performance climbing shoe, this is how climbing shoes work, providing maximum performance by bending your toes. This happened to me when i got my La Sportiva Genius, they are so small that my feet hurt so bad the first couple of days; you just need to get used to it, wear it when you're watching TV, eating food, etc etc, and it will stretch and eventually mold on your feet.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
