Is your sole worn out? Don't throw away your slipper. Our Decathlon workshops offer one of the most efficient resoling services on the market. Once your sole has been changed, you will be able to climb again with the liner already in the shape of your foot. Warning: as soon as you see the synthetic leather through the rubber, you must stop to resole. If you pierce the synthetic leather, it will no longer be possible to resole it.

This shape brings much more precision and power during your movements and optimizes support on small holds.Warning: this shape, adapted to technical climbing, can deteriorate the comfort of the foot a little (especially on the shapes of the feet of Greek type). That's why we chose a moderate level to combine performance and comfort.

Did you know ? The more grip a rubber has, the more it wears, especially in climbing gyms. This is why we have chosen to work with a recognized specialist in the market since 1937, Vibram, and have carefully selected the rubber offering the best balance. between resistance and grip. Our tests show that on average a rubber wears out in 6 months, on the front of the liner and/or above. It can be even faster depending on the quality of your footing."
