Master Jam Crack Glove

The Lowdown: 35 years of elite crack expertise distilled into a “second-skin” glove. Designed to strike a balance between maximum grip and protection in technical cracks, without compromising the mobility needed for face climbing.

Key Points:

  • Wide Boyz Proven: Tested and refined by Pete and Tom on the world’s hardest crack climbs.
  • Variable-Thickness Rubber: A bomber main panel provides hand-jam security, while thinner rubber on the thumb/pinky allows for movement in more intricate jams.
  • Tapered Edges: Rubber panels are flush-tapered to the fabric, eliminating thick edges for smooth entry into thin-hand cracks.
  • Low-Bulk Loop Construction: Wider loops increase comfort, while minimal material between fingers allows the hand to move freely on face holds.
  • Thumb Loop: Specifically designed for protection and friction in stacks, ring locks, and teacup jams.

Adjustable Crack Box

The Lowdown: A portable, standalone training tool for home or gym. Train everything from tip finger jams to double fists anywhere.

Key Points:

  • Total Portability: Train in your living room or at the gym. It fits in a climbing bag and requires no permanent installation or wall mounting.

  • Rapid Adjustability: Use the side knobs to quickly switch between any jam size.

  • Dual-Mode Training: Can be used as a “lift block” by attaching weights, or hung from a bar for dead-hang jams.

  • Gym-Ready Accessory: A perfect addition to a gym’s training area, sitting alongside lifting pins, pinch blocks, and fingerboards.

  • World’s First Adjustable Pinch Block: Thanks to its high-strength custom parts, it doubles as a pinch trainer for any width.

Wide Boyz Knee Pad

The Lowdown: A high-performance knee pad designed for technical knee bars and scums.

Key Points:

  • Wide Boyz Proven: Extensively tested by Pete and Tom on the world’s hardest crack climbs and used by elite sport climbers.
  • 4mm High Friction Rubber: The ultimate balance of extreme stickiness and protection against sharp rock features.
  • Full-Coverage Tapered Shape: Tapers from the thigh to the bottom edge, ensuring rubber contact even on technical “on-the-kneecap” placements. 
  • Three-Buckle Security: A robust closure system that keeps the pad locked in place during high-intensity movement.
  • Silicone-Grip Neoprene: Sticks directly to skin or shorts, with an ergonomic back cutout to prevent bunching or restricted movement.

Wide Boyz Tape

The Lowdown: Professional-grade climbing tape. Sticky, high-friction, and durable enough for the world’s most demanding cracks.

Key Points:

  • Wide Boyz Proven: Tried and tested by Tom and Pete on the World’s hardest cracks.
  • Sticky Adhesion: Stays glued to the skin during jamming, ensuring the tape moves with your hand rather than sliding like a loose glove.
  • High-Friction Texture: Features a specific weave to provide maximum grip against the rock.
  • Easy to Tear, yet split resistant: Specially balanced to be split-resistant while climbing, yet easy to tear strips of tape by hand when prepping your wraps.

Wide Boyz Tape Starter Pack

The Lowdown: Includes a premium roll of Wide Boyz tape, a protective storage tin, and illustrated “How-to” instructions.

Key Points:

  • Wide Boyz Proven: The same elite-grade tape used by Tom and Pete, packaged for convenience and longevity.

  • Taping Instructions: Step-by-step instructions for building tape gloves and doing technical finger-taping methods.

  • Protective Storage Tin: Keeps tape clean, dry, and free of dirt or chalk

I Love Crack Chalk Bag

Key Points:

  • Glove-Friendly Opening: An extra-wide mouth lined with slick fabric to ensure gloved/taped hands slide in easily.

  • Waist Closure: Uses a lightweight metal buckle system that won’t break or accidentally unclip during brutal squeeze chimneys.
  • High-Durability Fabric: Built with a fabric to withstand abrasion against the rock in chimneys and offwidths.

Key Points:

  • Wide Boyz Proven: Extensively used by Pete and Tom to build the specific power and endurance needed for the world’s hardest cracks.

  • Fully Adjustable Width: The two-piece design allows the user to set any crack size.

  • Dual-Surface Training: Ships flat-pack with a choice of surfaces: Soft Grip or Plain Wood

Wide Boyz Fibreglass Crack Volumes

The Lowdown: A modular, lightweight fiberglass system designed for commercial gyms, featuring Soft Grip Pro.

Wide Boyz Generator Crack Series

The Lowdown: A premium, semi-permanent crack setting system for route and boulder walls.

Why it Sells:

  • In-System Adjustability: A unique sliding back-plate allows for micro-adjustments and total size changes while the volume remains fixed to the wall.

  • Faster Resets: Reset routes by sliding volumes or swapping internal panels rather than stripping the entire line.

  • Interchangeable Internal Panels: Choose between slick panels, SoftGrip Pro, or screw-on insert panels to customize the challenge.

  • Complex Setting Scope: Includes low, medium, and high-profile units with specialized “connector” and “end” pieces to create offset or tapered crack features.

  • Multi-Grade Versatility: A single installation can host everything from beginner routes to elite-level projects.

 

Our Roots & Values

“We are the Crack Climbing Community”

Where it Began: The Wide Boyz brand was born from obsession. It started with Pete Whittaker and Tom Randall’s infamous trip to the USA, where they established the world’s hardest offwidth crack, Century Crack. What began as a personal quest to master a niche discipline turned into a global movement.

Building the Community: Returning to the UK, The Boyz began running Crack Schools. We quickly realized that climbers everywhere were hungry for crack-specific knowledge but lacked the tools and training to progress. To solve this, we designed and sold the world’s first dedicated crack climbing volumes to climbing gyms.

Listening to the Customer: By listening to our community, we expanded our volume and product range—including our industry-leading crack gloves, tape, and training tools. Everything we produce is a direct response to what our customers tell us they need to jam better and climb harder.

The Brand: Today, Wide Boyz is more than a gear company it is a highly recognised and respected brand

  • Expert Education: We run a successful online coaching platform and the Global Crack School.
  • Massive Reach: We have hundreds of thousands of dedicated followers and subscribers across our social media channels.
  • Real-World Connection: We host Crack Fest, the ultimate gathering for the community we’ve built.
