Ruzuka Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 (edited) Since i'm always looking for ways to keep my feet nice and toasty during trips doing very "stupid" things , i'm in need of either a pair of Millet Everest or Sportiva Olympus Mons. I'd need about the equivalent of a Euro size 45. If you no longer want nice toasty toes, drop me a PM.

Kraken Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 people tend to say that the zipper on the Oly Mons tends to jam up and get stuck pretty well/break. What are you planning on using them for? Ovens on your feet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruzuka Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 I've actually never had the chance to play around with either boot, but my feet tend to really enjoy sportiva boots for some weird reason (probably my wide feet). Main reason i need them is for climbs next year in alaska and the himalaya. Plus, i love having my feet in an oven!! I've also got poor ass circulation to my feet which doesnt help me .

Kraken Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 (edited) Yeah, if you're dead set on La Sportivas, I'd still go with the Nuptses. Cheaper than the Oly Mons and if you still aren't warm enough, you CAN put intuition thermalmolds in them, although most people don't...and if you STILL want more warmth, additional overboots. You will end up still spending less than the Oly Mons and will inevitably have more options. Get what you feel is best for you though. Good luck.
