TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
A RESOLING SERVICE AT DECATHLON
Is your sole worn out? Do not throw away your shoe. Our Decathlon workshops offer a resoling service that is among the best on the market. With your sole replaced, you can climb once again with the shoe already moulded to your feet.
Warning: as soon as you see synthetic leather through the rubber, you should stop using it and get the sole repaired. If you pierce the synthetic leather, resoling will not be possible.
SHOE SHAPE
Pronounced arch shape, high level of asymmetry and significant tension in the heel (moderate level). This shape provides maximum accuracy and power during your movements and significantly optimises contact on small holds.
Please note: this shape, suited to highly technical climbing, may reduce foot comfort (especially on Greek-shaped feet).
SOLE
XS GRIP Vibram® rubber, excellent grip and resistance to wear.
UPPER
High-coverage synthetic microfibre upper.
Keeps its shape.
ADJUST TO FIT
Elastic tightening with a single, very wide rip-tab strap, securing the foot.
SIZING RECOMMENDATIONS
If you are an intermediate climber, we recommend selecting a shoe size a little tighter than your everyday shoes (e.g. 1/2-1 size smaller) but it's important they don't hurt, so that your foot can develop mobility, proprioception, and strength.
If you are an advanced climber, we suggest you take the time to try different sizes (1 to 2 sizes below normal) to find the best compromise between comfort and compression for more force when pushing off.
WEAR-AND-TEAR OF THE SOLE
Did you know? The better a rubber’s grip, the more it wears out, especially in indoor climbing.
This is why we have chosen to work with a specialist recognised in the market since 1937, Vibram, and have carefully selected the rubber offering the best balance between strength and grip.
Our tests show that on average, rubber wears away in 6 months, on the front and/or top of the shoes. This can be even quicker, depending on how you place your feet."
