  Like people have said you need to try different pairs on as different makes size differently, i've had size 8.5 up to 10s depending on model. rock and run have a good page that lets you convert your normal shoe size to the right climbing shoe depending on the make/model here: http://info.rockrun.com/articles/rock-shoe-sizing-guide.html
  that said go to a climbing wall and hire shoes for the 1st few times and if you get the bug get some shoes then.
  The people at the Rock On shop at Mile End wall are really helpful - not a massive range but enough (UrbanRock at the Castle has more models) but the guys are super helpful and you can stand on some holds to test

  can vouch for Sealskinz road gloves too. bought them in early December and originally thought they'd be too hot but they've been ace in the cold yesterday and today.

  cheers will be good to actually try stuff before parting with cash as with all the online stores

  Thinking I may go along to the condor cycles evening if only to try on the jackets as I'm 6ft 5 and struggle to get ones that fit from any manufacturer.
  I've been looking for a wet weather/winter jacket that's stowable and they all seem pricey so if they fit I may have to cough up the cash.
  anyone have any comments about their sizing?
