A
guide to the catalogue categories
Mountaineering
When
you get close to the sky, your boots touch
rock, stones and ice.
Boots in this category have reinforced full-grain
uppers, excellent traction, virtually no seams,
depending on the destination insulated or
waterproof and breathable liners. High above
ankle shafts and tough materials provide increased
leverage for difficult edging. With full-length
shanks or nylon mid-soles and crampon compatible
Vibram soles; mountaineering boots easily
kick steps into hard snow, but are usually
too rigid for comfortable hiking. A breaking-in
period is necessary with these rigid boots.
Mountaineering boots are well suited to winter
hikes and glacier travels. |

Backpaking
When
the exploring spirit bring you trough brush
and forest and over talus, scree and snow,
ankle support and protection become the key
features to look for. Backpacking boots offer
superior waterproofing and durability, thanks
to their minimal seams and thicker stiffer
construction. Beck backpacking boots provide
lateral protection under heavy packs, offer
excellent control but may be overrated for
trail walking. Innovative sole construction
makes these boots surprisingly lightweight.
