Yes, climbing shoes can stretch out over time. Most climbing shoes are made from materials such as leather or synthetic materials that have some degree of stretch. As you wear your climbing shoes, they may conform and mold to the shape of your feet, resulting in a more comfortable fit.

It's important to note that the amount of stretch can vary depending on the shoe's construction and materials used. Leather shoes tend to stretch more than synthetic ones. Additionally, the fit and tightness of the shoes when new will affect how much they stretch.

To manage the stretching of climbing shoes, many climbers opt for a snug fit when purchasing new shoes. Keep in mind that excessively tight shoes can cause discomfort and foot pain, so finding the right balance is crucial.

If your climbing shoes stretch out too much and become uncomfortable or affect your climbing performance, you may consider replacing them to get the desired fit and performance.
