Additional Repairs and Options
Beyond the standard resole, we offer several options to further enhance the longevity and performance of your climbing shoes.
Toe Caps: Our experienced cobblers will assess if toe caps are necessary for your shoes. Toe caps are highly recommended when the rand rubber, which wraps under the climbing rubber, is worn. While our team makes the final decision based on years of expertise, we only apply toe caps when absolutely essential for your shoes’ durability, as a resole is required when toe caps are applied. Adding toe caps costs $15 per shoe and is crucial for preventing further wear in high-stress areas.
Specialty Rubber & Full Pads: For climbers seeking enhanced grip and performance, we offer specialty rubber upgrades. Full pad replacements are also available for shoes with heavily worn soles, ensuring optimal friction on the rock.
