If you've ever climbed the Exum ridge on the Grand - Glenn Exum climbed made the first ascent wearing football cleats!

 

For cheap gear - your best is to get used stuff. Check out REI's attic (occaisonal great deals - like $3 Evernew cooksets), the classifieds on this site, and message boards. Beware eBay, things are rarely a good deal. If you don't like what you bought, you can turn around and sell it for close to what you paid for it usually - and the stuff will be alot more comfortable than plastic bags.

I want to hear about any of you normal people climbing on Denali wearing the same attire.
