Resole Guide
What is a Resole?
A resole at its core is removing the top half sole of a climbing shoe and replacing it (a half sole resole).
Full Pad
This option is reserved for shoes with pads rather than full sole (see image below). Usually, damage to shoes is limited to the half sole (the upper portion of the shoe). However, if you’d prefer us to repair the entire pad (the entire top half of the shoe), select the full pad option on the form.
Stitching
Stitching is only recommended for blow outs where a sizable hole is present. If the material beneath the rubber is split and there is no stitching present or there is broken stitching, ordering stitching is recommended.
Toes
Toe Replacements
We offer two different types of toe repair, toe replacement, and a toe cap. If sensitivity in the toe is important to you we would recommend a toe replacement. If you would prefer more durability, then a toe cap would be the right choice as it adds another layer to the rand. Toe caps are great for indoor climbing, abrasive walls.
