Reviews overview
Disadvantages
This is what other customers say:
I used this on a recent climbing session. I've done a couple of sessions on them, one day walked on soft snow & ice with and without crampons and mixed climbing. They are very stiff which is great for climbing but not that great for walking on them. In one of the sessions, the approach to the base camp was 6 hours, I choose to walk using the boots and I develop some nasty blisters.
