Jarred_Jackman Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 Solomon Super Mountain 9 boots $68 (includes shipping in lower 48) I think they retail for about $300. I've had these boots for about 5 years and only used them for 2 (I bought plastics 3 years ago). Anyhow, they're great boots, a little on the narrow side, size 11.5, full stiff shank, made for ice climbing or glacier travel, no removeable inner boot. They're a hybrid leather and plastic. Lighter than plastics! PM if interested. Quote
Jarred_Jackman Posted January 14, 2004 Author Posted January 14, 2004 Are you shittin' me, $60 plus shipping and nobody knows anyone who wants some good boots. Is everybody paying top dollar for the latest and greatest? Come on, buy these things damnit! Quote
Jarred_Jackman Posted January 14, 2004 Author Posted January 14, 2004 Well then maybe you can help my cause, maybe we could work a buy one get one free sort of thing and you could donate your pair. Sounds good to me and it's sure to move my pair a lot faster! Quote
vegetablebelay Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 I'd get them but your feet are too small. Quote
sketchfest Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 Jarred, What exactly would you call narrow, how wide are your feet? Got any digitals of em? Quote
Terminal_Gravity Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 Sketch, are you really asking for digitals of Jareds feet??? Hey JJ don't post any photos of your feet or this thread will be kicked to spray. Quote

Hey JJ don't post any photos of your feet or this thread will be kicked to spray. Someones got a foot fetish Damn it, you guy's saw right through me! I was hoping for pictures of some nasty ole corn ridden, nail fungused tooties that I could print out and hang on my wall. Darn, you guy's won't let me get away with anything. Quote
Jarred_Jackman Posted January 15, 2004 Author Posted January 15, 2004 No digital camera here...you'll have to subscribe to some orthopedic porn I guess. As for the boots, they aren't as wide as my scarpas. I like the boots, I just don't need them, I need money more. They will fit anyone who doesn't have especially voluptuous feet. I just like wide shoes, boots, etc., I like to have room to wiggle my toes. If somebody really wants them, let me know, I'll send them, then if they fit nicely, buy them, if they don't, send them back, you're only out the shipping. I realize someone could just not pay me for them, but I'm trying to trust people to be decent. let me know. They're standard hybrid boots, they're not EXTRA SKINNY or anything. Quote
Jarred_Jackman Posted January 15, 2004 Author Posted January 15, 2004 Too small, what size do you wear, I could send you some inner tubes and you could fashion something out of them that might work. I wear size 12 street shoe, these run a little different. Quote
David_Parker Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 I love my Solomons SM9's and highly recommend them. I'd buy them if they were my size. FYI, I don't have narrow feet either. I think they fit most normal feet, maybe just not really wide feet. The inner part of the boot has a unique and simple (easy) lacing system with a pull tab that allows you to snug up the fit before doing the outside laces. Any leather boot made in Italy is great quality and will last. Quote
Jarred_Jackman Posted February 5, 2004 Author Posted February 5, 2004 Still available, thought they were sold, but no, YOU COULD STILL BE THE PROUD OWNER OF A PAIR OF NICE BOOTS!!! They look go with a business suit for those non-climbers out there!!! buy them! Quote
Brad_CA Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 Hey whats up! I sent an e-mail off this morning while waiting to be registered. If they're available and fit I'll take em, no problem. Let me know Quote
syklone Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 Sorry, they arrived at my house today! Thanks Jarred, they fit great! Quote
Jarred_Jackman Posted February 26, 2004 Author Posted February 26, 2004 Sounds good. I'm glad they fit, I didn't want to see them in the mail again. Sorry they didn't have laces, those are the breaks for $60. have fun Jarred Quote
syklone Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Ya when I saw there weren't any laces, I thought WTF? Who keeps the laces? Then I just realized I paid $60 for some damn nice boots, and I could deal with spending another $5 on laces. I may be cheap, but not THAT cheap. Thanks again! Quote
Jarred_Jackman Posted February 28, 2004 Author Posted February 28, 2004 They're in the boots that I actually use. My other laces broke last year so they were an easy replacements. But, glad you like the boots! Quote
