im interested is 44 euro around a size 10-10.5? and can u post some pictures?

[tread_tramp]

correct on the size; they were quite roomy for my feet before I injured them. I was then wearing size ten plus.

I have no digital camera for visual documentation.

[man_vrs_mountain]

hmm

how old are the asolos and the trango and is that like origional trango or like trango s or trango ice

[man_vrs_mountain]

and why are you selling them?

[tread_tramp]

The boots are for sale because they no longer fit my feet since an injury I had a couple summers back. They've been used very little since july '03. The trangos are the green colored trangos that have been replaced by the red colored Trango S. They are a few years old but still have a lot of wear to them. The Eigers are newer and in extremely good condition. I bought the Asolos off of Phil Dickert. Although He did a lot of climbing, These look like they haven't had a whole lot of use. There a few noticable crampon nicks, but other then that, they are like new. I didn't get a chance to use them before my foot size changed.

[man_vrs_mountain]

are they are all suitable for ice climbing?

[man_vrs_mountain]

im mainly interested in the asolo 101

[man_vrs_mountain]

but its also the onlyone i cant find a picture of

[tread_tramp]

The Asolos are rigid plastic boots with an inner boot; definitely ice-friendly. The Eigers are leather boots with a very rigid sole. I've worn them up rainier a few times, but never done any technical ice in them. But they are suitible for Ice climbing. The asolos would be better for winter climbing. And although the eigers have rigid soles, they are a better boot for walking in than the asolos.

[man_vrs_mountain]

the asolos are what i need then

[man_vrs_mountain]

how and where would this transaction take place i would also like to see and try on the asolo's i live over the ferry from seattle

[man_vrs_mountain]

and can the inner boot be taken out if i didnt want the supreme warmness?

[man_vrs_mountain]

i will begone untill this sunday so we talk more then

[tread_tramp]

The inner boot is an integral part of the boot. Without them you would just be walking in the plastic shell. You need to have them together. People do take the inner boot out sometimes and put them in the sleeping bag over night to dry them out.

 

If you want to try them on first, like I said, I live on Capital Hill in Seattle. And I work on Airport Way a bit north of the Tullys (old Rainier Brewery). We can make arrangements via private messages.

[tread_tramp]

The Asolos sold but the other boots and rock shoes are still available. And they are really in quite good condition.

[dbb]

I'll take the mythos. check pms

[tread_tramp]

The mythos are sold. The Eigers are still available ($100.) and are really excellent boots with rigid soles for ice climbing but, having rocker soles, are quite fine for walking in too.

 

And for just another $70 bucks There's a fine pair of grivel G-12 step-in crampons, what a deal.

[crackpuppy]

[man_vrs_mountain]

[crackpuppy]

[tread_tramp]
