Misc. Stuff for Sale

[fredrogers]

Cleaning out the closet and ran across the following stuff that could use a new home:

 

Men's Makalus, excellent condition and recently waterproofed, size 10.5, $75

 

Garmont Sticky Weekends, men's size 10, used one season $25

 

LaSportiva Mythos, excellent condition (bought them too large), size 42 1/2 (think that translates to men's 9.5), $90

 

Seal Line Dry bags Baja 10 and 20, brand new, $8 and $12.

Not to hose Fred's sale, but have you worn the Sticky Weekend before, Caveman? DFA had a pair for a few years, and the fuckers were not very comfortable. Conspicuously absent was any sort of effective cushioning underfoot. Despite what appeared to be foam on the bottom of the shoe, it was a lot like walking on plywood soles. That, and the clever way the sole gets thinner toward the toe (allowing you to climb better in them) keeps your feet canted forward at all times, making walking downhill an unpleasant endeavor. DFA's advice, though you're surely loath to take it, is to try a couple other brands. The Lowa low tops (forgot the name temporarily) are an extremely cush ride.

Um, thanks DFA.

 

I replaced the stock liners with cushier ones and they work just fine. I just bought them a little on the small side.

Fred I own a pair for 4 years. About to retire the ones I have now. I use them to boulder in and toprope easier climbs. Check personal messages. Have the lowas for one year they suck anus for my purposes.
