How the Brava fits
Expect minimal stretch. Size up two EU sizes from your child's street shoe size: Butora says its climbing shoes run a bit small, and the extra room makes them last longer. Synthetic uppers limit stretch but provide durability.
Fit profile: narrow width, standard forefoot volume, medium heel, suits roman toe shapes.
Minimal stretch expected; minimal break-in.
