Size is the biggest factor. A hold's price follows how much material it uses, so footholds and crimps are the cheapest items in any range while big jugs, slopers and pinches cost the most.
Material comes next. Polyurethane is used for everyday holds. Macros are large features, so Rockcity makes them from vacuum-thermoformed ABS: as stiff as fibreglass under climbing load but about half the weight and far less brittle. Volumes are made from birch plywood in Hull and are priced by size and finish.
Texture matters for competition and modern bouldering. Dual-texture holds and macros carry coarser grip on the intended contact zones and a smoother finish elsewhere, which helps setters show how a problem should be climbed.
Lifespan is worth weighing against price. Commercial PU holds typically last 5 to 10 years in a busy gym with regular cleaning, and VTF ABS macros last longer still. See the climbing hold materials comparison for the differences.

A single polyurethane climbing hold from Rockcity costs between £19 and £251 including UK VAT, with most around £84. Price rises with size: small crimps and footholds sit at the bottom of the range, large jugs, slopers and pinches at the top.
