RECYCLED CLIMBING ROPE PRODUCTS:
WHERE I GET THE ROPES:
Donations! From friends, family, strangers, climbing gyms, and also some retailers: With most retailers, when you return a rope, used or not, they cannot resell due to liability issues so some companies will either recycle or just throw the rope away. I asked if I could take the rope they were going to throw away and re-use it to make a new product!
WHAT I DO WITH THE ROPES:
I make the outside sheath into products like tote bags, toiletry and tool bags, and I’ve started dabbling in chalk bags! I have not quite figured out what to do with the core but I have not thrown any of it away.
