Lol sorry for the wait!

I thought I was the only one dragging my toes like that!😂🤣😂. My Dragos look the same, had toe caps done too.

Resurrecting these shoes like it’s Easter Sunday!

Holy shit, didn't expect Rodeo Resole to be featured! He's local to me. Had my first pair of Veloces resoled by him. I was ignorant and hoped to have them back within a month for a comp - ended up taking three months. I didn't get a sticker or keychain, though lol Haven't used the new resoled, as I'm keeping them as backup because I had to buy new Veloces for the comp, but they seemed quality.

@@BetaClimbers Oh for sure! It was during the run-up to the big annual comp here, and he's got a dropbox at the gym, so I'm sure he was swamped, indeed.

I would love more tips about how to know when you must send the shoes to resole, nice vid anyway :)

From what I gathered from (rodeo resole) it’s when you start to feel a soft spot. You don’t want to blow through the rand rubber and start doing damage to the leather. If you take good care of the shoes leather the shoe can last you a long time and multiple resoles. So at minimum if you start to see leather it’s time. 👍🏻 Keep in mind though some shoes like the solutions have straps that will easily snap if they are old. I once repaired a pair and put them on fresh from a resole place just to have the straps snap on me first sesh. So as long as the shoe is in good condition overall then I’d go for a resole.

About the tips, thanks for further explanation, so the best time to send them to resole is just before you see the leather. And you can sort of feel it with fingers when the rubber got thin? I send my first pair of shoes to resole when I started slipping hard, but idk, I’m quite a newbie 😅

A new pair of shoes will have a good sharp edge and if that’s heavily eroded back you will start slipping like you said. A new resole can fix that for sure.

Do you feel like the dragos climb the same after a resole? (Both rand and sole replacement)

thank you for making this youre a literal climbing jesus

What made you use them over the other two previously used in your last resole video? This was great collaboration - I have yet to ship off a pair of TCs that I’m afraid I let go too far but after this video I’m more confident they can be saved.

If you think they are to far gone, I’d recommend sending some photos and asking. looks like other companies are swamped at the moment so turn around is to long and variety is the spice of life or something like that so it’s nice to try other places out lol 😂

Where can I get the vibram sole for my la sportiva climbing shoes?

I got la sportiva tarantulas. I don't think there soft enough, thinking about taking some sandpaper to the soles. Wonder if I could resole them with super soft rubber took me two pair to find the right fit. If anyone wants a discount pair of 13.5 go to trail hut rva only wore 5 times.

yes u can choose if the resoler has different rubber compounds vibram has at least 2 different rubbers for la sportiva's

I was certain his grade was going to be: FULL / 10

I've wanted to get a more aggressive shoe, but both of my big toes have a bump on them and it's super painful. I've been using Scarpa Origins (got several pairs for a steal on eBay) so resoling will probably cost more than I bought them for. Any recommendations for a shoe that is a big more aggressive, but won't kill my feet? My biggest problem is the edge on the Origins is trash and I have a hard time sticking to tiny foot holds on my projects.

I’ll actually switch from my dragos to my solutions when I need a stiffer edge. So I rock two shoes and sometimes I’ll even mismatch them on a set. Shoes are a pretty personal preference so I’d just recommend finding a shoe store and just spend some time trying everything on and asking questions. I will say though some shoes feel like crap before they are broken in well so there is that to think about. Just think about it as part of your climbing journey as you explore more options lol good luck champ!

Pro tip: Don't use rodeo resole for Skwamas. He doesn't use LS original spare parts for that shoe.

Sure. You may have some climbing tools.

I have a pair of Shamans from over 10 years ago that I paid like $40CAD as a pro deal. I was considering buying a new pair but maybe I should just get em resoled?

@BetaClimbers

You’ll prob be paying 50ish for an new resole, but you’ll have a shoe that’s already broken in that feels like new. Unless you can get a new pair for under resole price I’d try it out.
