broken in at home & used only on ascent day from my Aconcagua expedition, in exellent condition, just don't need them no more. Size 45. Asking $500

I'm the guy who sold them to NOLSe, I only used them for Ice Climbing & Mountaineering...I found them light, rigid, & comfy for Waterfall ice or mix. For Moutaineering, I found them quite stiff...I prefer an all Mountain boot like the MultiTractions but this all depends what you specializes in...

If you want that extra room option if ever??? Get the 55...no problems what so ever with the fabric & It had its share of abuse.

I did even more than that with the 45...

Had 2 flaws on mine 1) One of the fastex fasteners on the 2 main compression straps let's go with very little pull. 2) Sternum strap also let go with moderate pull. Overall a very light & good pack but was quite pissed when I was stuck in the mountains with these irrepairable flaws. I am very pleased with their products sor far, but this one was not expected.

If you prespire a lot or wet weather conditions, get a synthetic with a good bivy bag...Cannot go wrong with this & I have tried this system in the army & on my climbs & it is bombproof....Down is warmer yes! But for maybe a day or so after it is dampened even with a bivy. Go Synthetic!
