Hello

my kayak shoes are falling apart, so i might have to buy new ones (or paddel barefooted).
Now i was asking myself the question if climbing shoes are a good idea.

Do they have e good grip when wet, are they comfortable when wet, ...

I'd like to know before finding it out the hard way.

thanks a lot!!

For about 4 years i used an old pair of climbing shoes i had replaced when i really started getting into kayaking. They are surprisingly comfortable when wet and the grip is good. the only downside to them is the fact that once wet they seem to take ages to dry out
