We replace your climbing shoe rubber to the factory specifications 

 

Climbing shoe rubber is the single most important part of the shoe.


You can also choose to upgrade the rubber on your shoe to a more sticky or edge-loving option.

Please let us know if you prefer a harder or softer rubber. You can do this when completing the Online Form before sending in your climbing shoes.

We are happy to provide advise which rubber to place on your climbing shoes.

Please note that for La Sportiva and SCARPA split-sole models, any request to change the rubber type from the original manufacturer’s specification will be treated as a custom resole.

As a result, this process involves creating a new sole rather than a Standard Repair. For pricing on customised or handcrafted resoles, please contact us.

At the moment we have Unparalleled rubber available but we are working on getting other rubber brands.
