Why We Like The Black Diamond Method S Climbing Shoe
When the angle goes beyond vertical, we pull on the Black Diamond Method S Climbing Shoe to send. The curved, downturned profile delivers efficient power transfer to help us hold tension, while the rubber wrapped toe box and molded heel give our hooks a bite. The split sole's ultra-sticky rubber helps us trust our feet, and its soft midsole enhances sensitivity, letting us really drive through the toe.

Nice Shoes
So far quite happy with these. The fit seems to match street size well.

Sizing is way off
Normally wear a 42. 5 which equates to 9. 5 US for climbing shoes. Couldn't fit my feet into the 9. 5's I just got delivered

Great fit and grip
I have a 13 street shoe size and ordered the same for these. I broke them in pretty quickly and they're tight-but-comfortable after just a few sessions. I had the normal Method shoes, but their toe box is weirdly high-volume for my feet. The Method S is more consistent and slimmer. I bought a second pair to have a spare.

Sleek
Sleek, stylish and well designed with great performance fit. The heel cup and last maintains excellent toe capacity achievement.

Bad recommendation
In the black diamond youtube channel, they have a video on these shoes, and the guy in the video says to size down a couple just like you would normal aggressive shoes. These were way too small and had to return. upon new arrival of a bigger size( my true size) they are still incredibly small and have started to fall apart and unpeel at all the plastic edges. Also the first time i bought they were on sale, the next time not. so i just payed extra money for not any better of a shoe. thanks. it’s a great shoe though!

They’re ok
They’re ok, but after one session my toe box was turning. I got them my street shoe size, and they feel pretty tight, but don’t edge well.

Jack of All Trades
The Method S surprised me with how solid it is as an all around shoe that does well in all aspects of climbing. It can keep up with hard bouldering and sport, but is comfortable enough to wear for a long time at the gym or for sensitive slab climbs. It has many modern features that are becoming more common like a big toe patch, one velcro strap, and a 3D molded heel. I have pretty wide feet so there are some pressure points in the mid-foot and the heel felt a bit sloppy. I would also recommend going up a half size from your street shoe size unless you want a really sensitive and tight fit.

A new contender
Looks like BD has arrived at the top level with their climbing shoes! These feel like the love child of a Skwama and Solution with Moccasym dna mixed in. Been bouldering, sport climbing and even jamming a little in these. Solid edging and confident smearing. A little tough to put on, but cozy enough that you can leave them on. Holding up well so far. Size wise go bigger than you think. I'm a 38 Skwama and these fit perfect at 41.5. Right on BD. Keep up the good work.
