When we joined the Decathlon family in 2008, we were able to expand our offering: Ropes, harnesses, backpacks, clothing and boots. All of these products are designed in Chamonix, and they're tried and tested in the field as well as in our lab, so we can guarantee you maximum confidence in your sport.

Always listening to climbers from around the world, Simond develops innovative, simple, reliable and effective products that are suited to all sports, from indoor climbing to big ascents.
