Climbing Shoe Resoling 

 Bern | Thun | Switzerland

What is a climbing shoe "resole"?

Slide to see the result of a Halfsole & Toerand

Resoling your climbing shoes restores their tension, toe precision, and rubber — while significantly extending their lifespan. A good pair of climbing shoes can often be resoled 3, 4, or even 5 times before they need to be replaced.

GRIPTIK currently uses VIBRAM rubber and offers Grip 2, XS Edge. Should you have a preference for rubber thickness (mm), please note this in the open comments section of the resole form. 

GRIPTIK is working with partners to offer other brands of rubber. Coming soon...
A halfsole is the front section of a climbing shoe sole. This is the part of the climbing shoe in which (or so we hope) you almost exclusively climb on. 

By Resoling a "halfsole", we simply mean replacing the front part of your climbing shoe's sole rubber. 

Should you have a shoe with seperate front and heel rubber soles (e.g. Instinct, Solution, Vapor...), we replace the entire front sole. 

Should you have a shoe with a non, detached full-sole, we cut-off the frontal section and fuse the new rubber to the old. 

Should you wish for a fullsole job, please take contact with us directly. 
A toe rand is an additional layer of rubber added to the front (toe) of the climbing shoe. 

Typically, we climb in our toes. This frontal rubber wears down quickly. Should the rubber be very thin, or a hole has formed, a toe rand is necessary. 


Of course! 

Should the new rubber sole quickly begin peeling, we will happily re-glue it.
