I'm assuming your serious.You don't need special shoes but they will help you, the foot bit becomes even easier.You may even find your hands slipping off less cos you've more weight on your feet. The improvement in climbing shoes is historically a major cause of higher standards, I remember the astonishment i felt while experimenting with my first pair of Fires (first boots with sticky rubber).They definatley helped me improve. Unfortunately i can't make the same claim for lycra which i wore for years without justification.
