Help with choosing boots/crampons please.
Posted: Mon Jan 18, 2016 10:43 pm
Hi all,
I'm hoping to get some advice on boots as I've done a lot of research but I'm still unsure what to do for the best.
I am looking for a boot that will be suitable for trekking but that will also be able to fit crampons. From what I can see it seems that it is difficult to get boots that cater for both?
The crampons that I have are: http://www.grivel.com/products/ice/crampons/5-g12
I've seen these boots, which have mixed reviews: http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/mammut-mens-mt-trail-gtx-boots-p133493 but I'm unsure whether the crampons will fit correctly and am wondering if anyone has any further suggestions?
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
Shaun.
