Running off without paying, Matt? Poor Eduardo!

Thanks for the excellent work you have done ... come back to see me ... thanks again edoardo

More videos like this please, how gym holds are made for example.

"Today I'm going to find out how they repair my shoes" Immediately leaves shop.

Much respect to true craftsmen like Eduardo. Great to see the process. It's awesome that you guys showed you can repair them, rather than just wastefully throwing them away and getting new ones.

This is giving me some serious “How It’s Made” vibes

Wow, that's amazing, it looks like a completly new shoe , well done 👍

Resoled my miura 5 times and my katana 4, but I'm now moving on some new testarossa for crag climb.

amazing finish on those shoes. Sadly my resolers don't do such a great job on the finish as Eduardo does

Excellent video. I was always interested to see how this was done.

I did not know this was even possible, nice to see!

Epic video! Get it? Epic! Never saw a video covering this. Great job! 👍🏽

Very informative video. I enjoyed it very much. I don't have shoes that are worth resoling at the moment, but this will change soon hopefully. This can also be an idea for a video, change or resole and when is the right time to do this. I cannot help myself (because I am an engineer) and I must tell you that the machine used by Eduardo to shape the edges of the shoes was not a milling machine, but a bench grinder. These are two absolutely different tools. Sandals and climbing shoes.

This was very cool and different. Would love more.

great episode!!

Thanks for creating all the edges we need Eduardo :-)

Outstanding work such a skilled trade. Very interesting upload wonderful.

Great video.. could you guys build on shoe maintenance and demo some of the odour fighting products out there? Id love to resole some of my older shoes but im not sure whats worse; old shoe stench, or breaking in a new pair

It's like you guys have been reading my google history. Also, the pressure machine was satisfying to watch.

That was really interesting! Cool video!

thx

Nice video! Also, you can make some videos about La Sportiva and Scarpa Official Resolers, they use the same spare parts from these brands, giving a like new shoe with similar first-day performance. It's a good action.

that was amazing

TIL i obviously don’t climb enough as i havnt worn holes straight thru my shoes. Goals to reach for? 🤔

good job

I've resoled my old testarossas about 6 times now. The rung going behind the heel is all ripped up but I still use them. They are already beat up so beating them up won't make a difference right!? Anyways I hate buying new stuff, I find it very convenient that climbing shoes can be resoled easily.

really cool to see the process, made me realize my second pair are too far gone to be repaired lol

Honestly one of the best things about wearing out the old pair of climbing shoes is the fact the new ones won't smell like a month old carcass on a hot sumer day.

Hi. What is the brand of sole press machine which is using cobbler?

i usualy resole my shoes 3 times before they have the right for retirement.

Used to do it in moccs 🤙🏼

"And you're watching How It's Made on the Science channel"

To share, another easy way to extend the life of shoes is to cycle them. One day off is not enough for the rand to regain original tension, and on back to back days the climbing rubber has yet to rebound between sessions. Thus, I cycle shoes on a two or three day on one day off circuit, never using the same shoe on back to back days, and have found my shoes have regained a substantial amount of tension and any divots depressions in the rubber have all but vanished. This is especially useful for my project shoes which see one or two routes or problems every few days but stay familiar to my foot for outdoor treks, and I do not use busted shoes for training. Expensive in the beginning, but since I started cycling shoes I get about 50% more life out of them and better performance every time.

Use superglue to fix delaminated edges and superglue+rubberdust for filling holes. This can give shoes many years of medium to low use.

For those starting off climbing and discovering more and more about your footwork, wearing through one pair of shoes is an excuse to go shoe shopping. I'll save the resoling for when I find that perfect pair of shoes

Hey Epictv, I noticed that a lot of people are using decathlon gear when climbing. Especially the climbing shoes are used a lot by beginners. I wonder if decathlon gear is a good option for beginners and would love to see a video about it!

You mentioned you should get your shoes resoled before they get holes in them, how can you tell it’s time just by looking at the shoe? I can never tell

Where do people get their climbing shoes resoled in the UK?

Hey Matt, the storry with the holes is not true, i'm using mine always until there is a hole (about 1cm x 1cm). I'm from germany, bavaria and we've got some specialist here which will resole the shoes also in this condition. the outcome is unbelivable good you'll always find glue at the top of your shoe because there is also rubber on it and yes they are also renewing this as well (e.g. my pair of OCUNE Oxi S there is really much rubber on the top). They are offering a wide range of soles Vibram and other as well. Price is quite low and waiting time is up to 8 weeks but its worth it.

I was so happy with my Scarpa shoes being resoled! However I seem to have problem finding an official resoler for my La Sportivas.

What materials should I buy

Can you cover all the vibram rubbers with their specialities and weaknesses?

Is it worth it for cheap climbing shoes? How much is it?

How much would this cost?

What price point are we talking about ?

hola! saben si ese mismo servicio lo puedo encontrar en Colombia?

Question: does the rubber maintain it's shape after resoling in terms of it molding to your foot?

Only 7 minutes for that topic ?! We wanted 30 at least !

I´m now climbing for 1 1/2 year. I just wrecked my 4th pair of shoeas today. 2 pairs of mythos which I´m gonna give away for repair. I really like the Mythos.

I’m so jealous I don’t have anyone like Eduardo around!

Hey...but, how to contact with Eduardo? Thanks

This is great , Matt how much did you pay ? And do you know of any in the UK which do climbing shoes ?

Should all do this far more regularly

Does anyone have the number to rock n resole?

I wish it made financial sense at my climbing level to do this but it costs less for me to get closeout shoes on ebay new than it would cost to resole my old ones. 😔

A skin re-growth video would be nice, after having slipped of that new yellow slab.

1:05 min: Not every company does it, but you can definitively make your shoes resoled if they have a hole.

but how much cheaper is it than getting new shoes

Anybody know how much this roughly costs? :)

I get my shoes resoled by Feet First in Chesterfield. Tbh I think they do a better job of putting the soles on that Scarpa

My VSRs will definitely be treated better then my last two pairs of shoes😅 When the time comes they’ll get a timely resole 😁

Can anyone Identify the background music? Music for 18 musicians by Steve reich?

its amazing, you had a downturn climbing shoe and now you have a neutral shoe xD

I think one of my indoor pair has been resoled 8 times now, time for it again. Will they last 10?

Hate to break it to you buddy but that thing you keep calling a milling machine isn’t a milling machine. Someone’s done you dirty lmao

Does anybody know where in Europe I can learn this craft? I'm seriously thinking of such a business. There's a huge demand for repairing climbing shoes in my country. Seriously, if somebody knows, please tell me.

My shoes are usually stinking like death by the time I wear holes in them, don't think any cobbler would dare go near!

I’ve resoled my vapour v shoes, but they don’t feel as supple and sensitive as they were before, even with wearing. They’re now much stiffer and downturned (which the shoes are not designed to be) and now scrunch my toes up to make them very painful. Is this just me?

Why you not get hole in toes still tho? Also resoling now generally costs as much as a new shoe

Hello beautiful video on an overlooked topic. I have the same shoes. Can you tell me how long did you climb in them before having to resole them? Thx

After resole, all my climbing shoes stretched and take 1 more shoes size :(

In Russia we resole every pair even with big holes )

The feeling of the shoe might differ after resoling.

I sure hope Eduardo doesn't have a proper functioning nose.

Strange looking milling machine that

4 or 5 mm?

the intro sounds like the porn hub one

it lose the curvature compared when it was new, that the only bad think

Be honest you just didn’t want to wait for the resoles to come back huh? 😂

First :) Wow, what do i do now, with the rest of my life?

Resoling sure. Before that: proper foot technique to not trash your shoes.

looks quite easy, but anyway I know only one company which do it well 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Interesting. I always tell myself to resole my shoes but they always end up beyond repair (rubber on top of shoe also coming off, etc.).

any good cobbler will do it i had my one resoled for 5 Euros in Poland including non fancy rubber that does the job.

then why does my shoe take 4 months

Not even said thank you to Ronaldo! Is this the American way?

That man must have nostrils of steel or he just holds his breath for the whole process

What a load of old cobbler's

So, extending the life of our shoes by re-soling them? No shit!

Dis click bait. But I enoyedz itz

Do brits call something else a milling machine? Cause that ain't one to my knowledge.

All these comments about smelly shoes... Just wear socks ya dummies. That’s what I do and I flash V3’s all the time!

This video is Bullshit. Click bait. Should be called "How to pay someone to sole your shoes" You did not mention a technique of extending shoe life. Shame.
