Cathy and Wayne are joined by Scarpa UK Core Sales Director Glyn Padgett to discuss what sets mountain boots apart from regular walking boots.
Learn the difference between B1, B2 & B3, why stiffness is critical when using boots with crampons, why size matters (even more than usual), why you shouldn't get the hump with gaiter zips, why it's not just materials that make a boot vegan friendly, amazing aftercare and the bizarre link between the boots on your feet and a famous Irish dry stout. All this and some serious tittering over lubricants!
Listen ,learn, laugh and if you are able, please consider donating to our chosen charity: Community Action Nepal
