    Best rowing shoes on the market

    Posted by Jason Osborne on 1st Oct 2020

    As a member of the German national rowing team, I have some high expectations on any rowing shoes. The PBR-2 are by far the best rowing shoes I have ever rowed in. You can feel that there is a concept behind this shoe. The two part carbon sole, makes the shoe stiff, but not too stiff as you need a bit of flexibility in the shoe. The shoe also holds your foot in place very well, which I really like. Other rowing shoes are just too soft and therefore let your feet move around too much, which leads into a loss of power.

IMPORTANT

Be advised all measurements shown in the size chart above are listed in millimetres and refer to all current models purchased after 2015.

NEW SIZING METHOD

To find your Bont Rowing shoe size, download and print our all-new sizing page in US Letter or A4 and follow the instructions exactly as listed. Mark with a straight edge your longest toe and widest part of your foot. Double check the length and width with a ruler to confirm your measurements. Be advised, this is a newly developed sizing page so please send any feedback to our team by clicking the red 'speech bubble' in the corner of the page.

ORIGINAL SIZE METHOD

To find your size, place a piece of paper on a flat surface and place it directly up against a wall.

Stand on the paper and ensure you have a 1mm gap between your heel and the wall.

Plant your foot firmly on the ground and slowly roll your weight forward onto your forefoot until it reaches an angle of approximately 45-degrees. This position mimics the angle at the catch in a boat. Look down and take the measurement from the wall edge of the paper to your longest toe. Record the length.

Use a ruler to measure the length for each foot. Take these measurements and input them into the sizing wizard or reference the Foot Length Range sizing on the size chart.

The Last Length measurements shown on the chart are the exact length of the last that we use to build the shoes. This correlates to the precise internal measurement of the shoe.

Keep in mind the length of a foot will extend slightly when at the catch. It is for this reason the foot measurement must be taken at its longest point with foot at 45-degree angle.
