Taking care of your climbing shoes — maintenance and resoling guide

Taking care of your climbing shoes

Maintaining your climbing shoes extends their lifespan and preserves their performance. A few simple actions are enough to keep your equipment in good condition season after season.

Regular cleaning

After each use, clean your climbing shoes with lukewarm water and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh detergents that could damage the materials. Let them air dry, away from any direct heat source. Check out our selection of Climbing Shoes to renew your equipment if necessary.

Storage and preservation

For optimal storage, keep your climbing shoes in a dry and ventilated place. Avoid compressing them or exposing them to direct sunlight for long periods. Visit our page La Sportiva - 133 - Climbing -> Climbing Shoes and Scarpa - 133 - Climbing -> Climbing Shoes for suitable maintenance accessories.
