CELEBRATING EARTH DAY WEEK
REDUCE. RESOLE. RECYCLE.
At Ontario Resoles, we give climbing shoes a second life – repairing thousands each year to keep quality gear on the wall and out of landfills.
On Earth Day it is worth reflecting on how small choices can add up to a meaningful impact. Extending the life of our gear is one of the most practical ways to reduce waste, conserve resources, and keep quality footwear out of landfills while still maintaining high performance.
There is real pride in the craft of resoling. Every pair represents care, precision, and respect for the original materials. Instead of discarding well-made shoes, we restore them so they can keep performing for years to come.
Considering Refurbished Shoes?
All refurbished shoes sold by OR Gear Co. are professionally cleaned, washed, and sanitized before they ever hit the shelves. Any resole or repair work is also covered by our standard workmanship guarantee, so you can feel good about the quality and how long they’ll last.
For families, refurbished kids’ shoes are a great option too. They’re easy on the budget, super practical, and a simple way to keep up with fast-growing feet! If you bring them back without holes, you may even be able to trade them in for a credit on the next pair as your little crusher grows.

Earth Day is an important reminder that everyone who spends time outdoors, especially rock climbers, has a responsibility to protect and respect the natural environments they enjoy.
For rock climbers, nature is not just a backdrop but the foundation of their activity. Cliffs, mountains, and forests provide the spaces where climbing happens, and these areas are often fragile ecosystems. Celebrating Earth Day encourages climbers to reflect on how their actions affect these places, from the trails they use to the rock surfaces they touch.
