Kids' Five Ten Gear Frequently Asked Questions
When should I introduce my child to bouldering or rock climbing?
Introducing your child to bouldering or rock climbing can be a fun and rewarding experience. Many climbing gyms offer programs for young climbers, often starting around age 4 or 5. Before starting, ensure they have the necessary skills, such as balance and coordination. Investing in proper kids' climbing clothes and shoes is essential for safety and comfort. Remember, patience and encouragement are key as your child develops their climbing abilities.
Is it OK to wear socks with climbing shoes?
While some climbers prefer to go barefoot in climbing shoes for maximum sensitivity, wearing socks is generally acceptable, especially for beginners or in colder conditions. Kids' climbing clothes and shoes tend to be more all-purpose, and kids often wear socks. Socks can help to wick away moisture, reduce friction, and provide additional warmth. However, it's important to choose thin, non-bulky socks that won't interfere with the fit of the climbing shoes.
Is there a difference between bouldering and rock climbing shoes?
Yes, there is a difference between bouldering and rock climbing shoes. Bouldering shoes are designed for indoor climbing, emphasizing sensitivity and precision. They often have a more aggressive rubber compound, tighter fit, and minimal cushioning. Rock climbing shoes, on the other hand, are designed for outdoor climbing, prioritizing durability and comfort for longer routes. They tend to have a more relaxed fit and a more durable rubber compound. When choosing kids' climbing clothes and shoes, consider the type of climbing your child will be doing to ensure the best fit and performance.
