Thanks for covering the questions everyone wants answered but forgets to ask!!!
You're welcome! Resoling is definitely something you will encounter at some point as a climber!
Geek Climber, this editing slaps! Love this energy lmao
those first 15 seconds are hilarious! XD
Good vid my dude.
Glad you like it!
My local cobbler does it in two weeks max, so I'd recommend checking the ones in your area! (Shes Vibram-certified, I think thats something to ask for)
So what is the best timing exactly?I found it is hard to tell until I broke the rand.
When the edge of the sloe wears through all thickness of the rubber, then it’s time. Usually that happens at the inside edge first.
What? 1 to 2 months? My nearest Scarpa official resoler resole my shoes in 3 days
I like your videos, they are usually pretty informative and well structured.
It would be great if it didn't feel like you were shouting at me though.
This is one of my earlier videos. If you check my newer videos you can see that I toned it down for quite a bit.
Does reí still have resoling?
Yes, at least the one in San Diego still has it.
As a follow up, most REIs do not take in climbing shoes for repairs, and those which do send them to nearby resolers/cobblers. Would find a qualifier resoler yourself to communicate with and develop a relationship. My favorite is Rock and Resole due to communication, craftsmanship, options, and haste, with the communication being especially important as I can request and discuss other rubbers of varying thicknesses for specific shoes and potential issues for sensitivity, durability, etc..
Thanks for the information man! I will check them out since I need to resole one pair of my shoes now.
But how
Coming from being into sneaker and such I never really found the climbing shoes to be that expensive
Haha I was a poor student back in the days so I had to figure out ways to cut cost. I’ve been resoling my shoes ever since.
@@GeekClimber I'm a student at university atm, my university has its own climbing wall and a bunch of gear that you can borrow at no fee. 9 times out of 10 I just borrow one of the pairs here to keep mine in good condition
Dude! support local business screw REI
Maybe I am out of the loop but why does REI get a bad rep?
Because there are some many local businesses why support the Walmart of the rec world... climbing is a community... support local business
