vsigler Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I am considering a new boot purchase and was looking at the Mammut Monolith GTX boot. These would be used for mostly summer, general mountaineering and routes like the Reid Headwall on Mt. Hood and the Kautz Glacier on Mt. Rainier. Therefore, some 50-60 degree ice thrown in with the general stuff. I am looking for information concerning durability, truness of fit and stability on moderate ice slopes with crampons.

Maxtrax Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Performance is going to be similar to any other hybrid leather/synthetic boot that takes a new-matic style crampon. If you intend to do more steep climbing then you might consider the Mamook instead. Most folks I've talked to who have worn either boot described the fit as typical Raichle and sized them .5 to 1 size above street shoe.
