I am interested in both and couldn´t decide which way to go. I got the Solution comp because they fit me well, and i couldn´t try the Skwama at that time. Is it worth having both, isn´t there to much "overlap" of their abilities? Can you share your experience?

well spotted I had to go back and look !!

And later too, at 6:39

do they fit?

That's very interesting! I also have wide feet and was thinking 'bout getting a pair of Theory's. Can I ask you what's your height/weight. 'Cause I'm pretty tall and want to know does Theory offer just enough support for gym edging problems🙃 Thanks in advance!

@@sora_mugen I'm 6ft1 and I weigh 87kg, they work well on everything. I will also just preface that by saying I am a very footwork oriented climber so if you trust your footwork then these shoes will blow your mind.

@@MarkSmith-hq4rr thank you for the answer, it is extremely helpful! 🙂

Matt does a way better job at reviewing, but it’s cool they are doing women reviews.

I own and climb 3 different models of La sportivas "womens" line though ;) according to la sportiva the fit should be the same for mens and womens versions, the latter being a bit softer

@@seeeeeb9300 I don't climb in la sportiva shoes but the women's versions have two features besides the softer flex that I need: narrower width and much lower heel cup volumes. Otherwise, I can't edge or heel hook very well.

What grades do you climb and where did they wear out?

Phil these comments are kinda gross my dude

@@thesii213 Elaborate on why it's "gross". If you make a strong enough case then I'm sure when you report the comment it will be taken down.

@@drewetpa Didn't mean to ruin your day Phil, it's just generally considered a bit rude to make comments like this that seem to objectify others with regards to their appearance. But if that was not your intent, then I apologize!

@@thesii213 That's your reading of the comment laden with your frame of reference. Perhaps the wish is the father of the thought? Maybe you should reserve your judgements for less ambigous cases.

@@drewetpa So that was not your intent?

agreed 110%

I thought the exact same!

Heya yes i do have a say and i know the people who i work with and the focus has always been on the shoes. I wore what was appropriate for that day considering it was pretty warm and never was i made to feel unconfortable. I hope that clarifies your concerns :) - Teresa

@@dailyclimbing thanks for chiming in! You have illuminated the discussion!

It is unfortunate when that person holding the camera can't get the best shot but I don't know how you can expect the perfect shot every second. That seems to possibly be a bit much to expect.

They're just filming the shoes ffs get off your high horse and stop turning everything into a political issue

@@FloodCsgo For me, it’s not about politics. It’s about walking the walk. They raised an issue over a certain type of objectification of women, then did the same thing themselves. That’s hypocrisy. If you think this is political, ask some female friends how safe they feel when out and about especially in urban settings, because actually, it’s all part of the same problem, being that women are all too often seen as, in some sense, objects for use or enjoyment of men. That’s a basic safety and well-being issue for 51% of the population and I don’t think there’s anything particularly political about that. Certain types of people try to paint this as political to denigrate the argument, but that’s bull. If you think this type of media content has no real world effect on how people see themselves, others, women, then there are entire industries and records of outcomes that beg to differ. Add to that the fact that men control the majority of stuff in the world, and you have a pretty unfavourable set of circumstances for the safety of women. The desire for women to be treated equally, not be objectified and to be safe everywhere is wholly upstream of any political viewpoint, not downstream of it.

@@TimH123 I completely agree with the wider point you're making but even Teresa herself commented on the video saying she didn't feel objectified by the video at all. Having a girls ass in a shot doesn't automatically mean they're being objectified. I reckon you're just hyper aware about the fact because clearly it's a passionate subject for you (which is a good thing). Ultimately though, making this argument every single time even a bit of leg or ass is shown is an overall negative. It's tiring to see the arguments plastered everywhere when there are so many better ways to work towards your goal than commenting on the camera angle of a climbing shoe review video. My 2 cents.

@@FloodCsgo Thanks for the reasonable reply, I’ll certainly take that into account in future.

@@TimH123 I was literally so confused about what you were talking about at first, it didn’t even stand out to me in the first watching of the video. That just seems like a typical shot from the belayers perspective. I guess I “objectify” my climbing partner cause that’s usually what I see while belaying her. lol Just seems like a perspective angle that’s pretty common in climbing, didn’t seem overly intentional to me. Overall the video was far more focused on letting her present the information than any objectification.
