Im monkey footed, I had steel toe rigid sole with a heel boots for a wile, only think i liked was you could lok the heel on the bars. At the end of the day my legs and ankles killed me. In a factory I worked in i ran a multi ton cart over my foot, the only reason i still have that foot is cause i didnt have steel toes, osha be damned, I will avoid those fuckers at all cost when I can. If I still climbed regular, i would probably look for rock climbing shoes, those would be the bees knees for tower work
