With well over 25 years of climbing experience and nearly as many years of working in outdoor retail in one of the country's finest specialist climbing shops, Matt has seen, worn and sold a LOT of rock shoes. A huge amount of these would end up in landfill towards the end of their life but Matt hopes to help reduce that, saving you money and helping the planet reduce vital resources and therefore helping our planet just a little bit.

>  Back when I was climbing lots and going through shoes every 3-6 months. Your choice was either a poor resole from a generic outdoor repair centre, not necessarily done by a person who knew what shape the shoes should be, or have the skills - and eye - for a neat job. These Resoles would often take many weeks too, so in the bin they went - and a new pair was bought instead. 

There doesn't seem to be another option in the 'choice' here. Or is the new pair the other option?

That's certainly how I read it.

I have recently had a pair of Five 10 Anasazi Pinks resoled by Matt at Rockworx and he has done a great job. Will be using again for sure.

Is anyone able to describe the differences between the different types of rubber used for resoling?

I just had a pair of Tenaya Masai resoled by Matt, I asked for XS Edge rather than XS grip (Edge is harder) and he has done a great job.

Call/email him and ask, I'm sure he'd be happy to explain!

Yes, Hit me up directly, I'll try to answer any (Re-Sole related) questions you may have.

Thanks,
