A RESHAPING SERVICE AT DECATHLON
Is your sole worn out? Don't throw away your liner.
Our Decathlon workshops offer one of the best resole services on the market. Once you've changed your sole, you'll be able to climb again with your liner already in the shape of your foot.
Warning: as soon as you see the synthetic leather through the rubber, you need to stop and resole. If you pierce the synthetic leather, resealing will no longer be possible.
LINER SHAPE
Shape with high arch, high asymmetry and high heel tension (moderate level). This shape brings maximum precision and power to your movements and greatly optimizes support on small holds.
Caution: this shape, adapted to technical climbing, can deteriorate foot comfort (especially on Greek-type foot shapes).
INSOLE
XS GRIP Vibram® rubber, excellent grip and abrasion resistance.
LINER SHAFT
Ultra-wrap-around synthetic microfiber upper.
Does not stretch.
TIGHTENING
Elasticated tightening with a wide, single Velcro fastening that locks the instep.
SIZE ADVICE
If you're just starting out, we recommend taking a little tighter than your street size (e.g. 1/2-1 size down), but it's important not to suffer so that your foot can develop mobility, proprioception and strength.
If you're an expert climber, we recommend taking the time to try on the different sizes (1 to 2 sizes down) to find the best compromise between comfort and compression for greater push-off strength.
SOLE WEAR
Did you know? The grippier a rubber is, 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 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. This can be even faster, depending on the quality of your foot placement.
