fenderfour Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 You can't. If you are nice, you might be able to borrow some. I have Lowa Civettas that I would lend if you are in Seattle. Crampons too. fenderfour -at- yahoo -dot- com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mountainmandoug Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Rumor has it that American Alpine Institute in Bellingham has a pair in there pool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odarodle Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Yes, it is true! AAI in Bellingham now has a pair of size 15's AND size 16's. Tell all your friends and local NBA players. Graham, gear god, went above and beyond to help me when I was looking for rentals for my dad, and ordered a few pair to have on hand. They even have a set of modified crampons for the 16's.
