If anyone wants to look and price up the AKU boots I mentioned there's a company on ebay under mountain boots,good price to.

I got some Aku' Cresta for around 145 quid. Those boots look comfy mate, but I feel time will tell as to how long they hold up for tree climbing.

I had the Cresta but they felt a bit of a let down after the Crodas which were perfect. Have some LaSportiva trango evo's now but 6 months down the line are looking worn badly this damp wether is not helping. Going for Zamberlan Monsters next.

I never had Crodas but the Crestas are holding up very well for me.

 

I got them in September last year and they barely look worn in. I do wear my Airstreams for dismantles though.

Ya I know what you guys are saying and I do think its all relevant to how much climbing we do.

 

Also sometimes its not always a case of you get what you pay for I have had boots in the past which cost a fortune and have been crap and others which have been less then half the price and have been great.

 

I just think there is't much difference in price between the top boots but sometimes its just nice to have a change.

[Rich Rule]

Cool, let us know how you get on with them.

Ya no worries I will keep you posted and so far so good have had them since October and we have't had tomany dry days since and have been great.

 

Feet dry warm and no rubbing.
