Product information & specifications

Distel Carbon 3.1 Climbing Spurs – Leather Strap Version

Designed for UK professional arborists, tree-surgery specialists and committed domestic climbers seeking a top-tier climbing spur system. The Distel Carbon 3.1 Climbing Spurs with leather straps combine an ultra-light carbon-reinforced polycarbonate shaft, ergonomic forward-offset stirrup and wide baseplate with premium leather straps for comfort and durability. Crafted by Distel in Germany, these spurs deliver maximum climbing performance, fatigue-reduction and long service life. 

Key Features & Benefits

  • Carbon-reinforced polycarbonate shaft – extremely lightweight yet high strength: designed to reduce climber fatigue.
  • Ergonomic forward-offset & angled stirrup with extra-wide base (≈ 47 mm): optimises weight distribution and balance while climbing. 
  • Premium leather lower and upper straps – durable, comfortable and suitable for heavy use.
  • Height-adjustable cuff in multiple increments — tailored fit for leg length & harness configuration.
  • Vibram® rubber sole protection under footplate – protects carbon frame and enhances grip on branches.
  • Suitable for demanding tree work, rigging and professional canopy access – a step above entry-level spurs.
