HISTORY

CLIMBING SHOES AND ACCESSORIES

2009

Frédéric TUSCAN, former top-level climber, buys the
EB brand and created 9A CLIMBING Sarl.

His experience and knowledge of the field are key to the successful development of one of the oldest brands of climbing equipment.

2010

9A becomes a pioneer by creating 6A, the first brand of climbing shoes 100% for communities.

Success was immediate, and the brand became the market reference.

Since 2015

9A climbing continues its development and starts distributing English Rock technologies products in France. This enables the company to offer a complete range of climbing consumables, such as liquid chalk and regenerating hand creams.

Today

The young company is one of France's leading manufacturers of climbing shoes.
