allthumbs Posted October 15, 2002 Posted October 15, 2002 Thanks for the heads up, but no thanks. I wear wool knickers. Perhaps DFA, he's a synthetic type of guy. Quote
Lambone Posted October 15, 2002 Posted October 15, 2002 hmmm yeah, but what climber wears a 44" waist!!!!!! Â I got a pair of REI schollers for 100$...they are good pants. Quote
Greg_W Posted October 15, 2002 Posted October 15, 2002 MEC Ferrata pants are $100US and they rock!! Quote
monkeyboy Posted October 15, 2002 Posted October 15, 2002 I am sure they are really nice but 100 bucks is still a lot to spend on climbing pants. I Guess I will keep the mountie look alive with shorts over long johns. Quote

I Guess I will keep the mountie look alive with shorts over long johns. I'd have to say that the 110$ that I spent on my old/retiered Pataguci Talus pants was perhaps the best 110$ I have spent on gear. I use them all the time. Try and you'll never leave home without them... Quote

I don't know. GearExpress one time had a seat harness listed on their clearance page that was size XXL --seems like it was about a 48" waist. I remember at the time thinking: "I want that guy belaying me!" Quote
Beck Posted October 16, 2002 Posted October 16, 2002 I want some Scholler knickers!!! With built in suspenders, please. Soft shells prices are expected to drop substantially in the next coupla years, but if you not wearing Scholler yet you're missing the boat. Quote

It is euro sizing, you gotta actually read the text on the page Yah, it's Euro sizing, but it's still fricken gigantic. I bought Mammut Castor pants last week and the store couldn't tell me anything about the sizing, so I tried them all on. My assessment was 48 smallish medium, 50 medium, 52 large, 54 lg-xlarge. I don't want to even think about catching a fall of someone who wears a 68 . Quote
leejams Posted October 16, 2002 Posted October 16, 2002 Good site to check out every once in awhile though. IF you pay attention to the sizes they can come up with some pretty good deals if you happen to get lucky and find something in the correct size. I bought some new boots there this summer and perfent fit and killer price. Quote

Shit, he's gonna need a lot more than Schoeller, like a 12 mm rope, and a shit loader of screamers. Quote
