Boots size 35/36!..small feet...big dreams
Posted: Mon Jun 11, 2012 8:50 pm
Hi All,
I am an Irish girl with tiny feet, I usually wear a size 35/2.5 (Womens UK,5 Womens US). I have searched everywhere for boots suitable for elbrus,aconcagua and denali but can get nothing in my size.
The likes of Scarpa vega/inverno,koflach artic,spotiva baruntse come in a 37(Womens Uk 4.5,Womens US 6.5). If I allow for thicker socks and swelling,I reckon a 36 would be ideal.
The smallest I can find is the sportiva nepal exo gtx for women in a 36,but I am afraid they wont be warm/dry enough for elbrus,denali etc
Does anyone know of any brands that make suitable boots in these small sizes. Perhaps some asian manufacturer might cater for smaller sizes? Or indeed if anyone is aware if the likes of scarpa,lowa,sportiva,koflach,kaylands would make a custom small pair? Of all the inspiring women who have reached the summit of everest,surely some have overcome a small feet problem like mine .... any help/advice apprecciated.
