LINER SHAPE
The liner is flat and slightly arched. This respects the foot's morphology and provides a high level of comfort.
The profile of the toe remains precise.
INSOLE
XS GRIP Vibram® 4 mm
XS Grip is a soft, very grippy rubber that provides a good feeling of grip, especially on flat or rounded holds.
SOLE WEAR
Did you know? The more grip a rubber has, the more it wears out, especially in climbing gyms.
That's why we've chosen to work with Vibram, a recognized market specialist since 1937, and have carefully selected the rubber that offers 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. This can be even slower, depending on the quality of your foot placement.
THE WEAR INDICATOR TELLS YOU WHEN TO RESEAL YOUR SHOE.
To help you know when to reseal without risking damage to the liner, our engineers have developed a wear indicator in the liner.
The wear indicator appears when 2/3 of the liner has been worn, giving you a little more time to make an appointment to have your liner resealed.
Note that once resealed, your liner will no longer have this wear indicator, since it was in the original liner.
RESHOEING SERVICE
Is your insole worn out? Don't throw away your liner.
Contact our Decathlon stores to find out where to resole your liner.
Once you've changed your liner, you'll 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, resealing will no longer be possible.
SIZE ADVICE
If you are new to climbing, we recommend that you wear your street size. The tips of your feet should touch the toe of the shoe without hurting.
If you're still progressing, we recommend that you wear a little tighter than your street size (e.g. 1/2-1 size smaller), but it's important not to suffer so that your feet can develop mobility, proprioception and strength.
MAINTENANCE ADVICE
Our first piece of advice is not to machine-wash your slippers (under any circumstances). The mechanical and thermal stress could damage them. We recommend washing them by hand, either with a sponge soaked in clean water, or with a sponge soaked in soapy water (Marseille soap), leaving them to dry in the open air, at a stable temperature and avoiding drying (radiator or direct sunlight).
