About Charles Cole
Charles David "Charlie" Cole III was an American rock climber, inventor, and entrepreneur. He was the founder of the climbing shoe company Five Ten, established in 1985, and is best known for inventing the ultra-sticky Stealth Rubber outsole that revolutionized rock climbing and mountain sports footwear. An accomplished climber himself, Cole achieved several notable first ascents in Yosemite and Joshua Tree and earned a reputation as a pioneering innovator in climbing gear. His developments in high-friction rubber technology "changed the way we all climb."
