High Fashion Mountaineering Boots...

[the_state]

seen Mountain Light II's in new colorways at the Danner store with J. Crew tags. only 2 pairs without box so probably samples. so. expect things.

what colorways/tags/

[d.clique]

The other pair are darker tan (same material as the tan christy's i posted previously) silver hardware and black laces.

I don't know what you mean about 'tags' but there is no J.Crew branding if thats what you're asking.

this is really making me regret the pair of regular ML2's that i just copped...

[ericdw]

i think you can convince yourself that the regulars are different enough from those to justify both.

[cheapmuthafukr]

anyone know where i can get a pair of these that arent 600+ dollars? the only ones ive found are danner jp.

[d.clique]

that style has definitely been through the factory store. don't know if they are there now but I'll be in Portland later this week and can let you know.

[partytaco]

working on it, cheap. samples this week.

Another boring sizing question. How are the Danner sizes? Compared to Redwing for example (I'm 9.5 in RW)?

they're smaller and narrower than RWs.

I wear a US size 9 for the RW 875 and Danner ML II.

I usually wear a size 10 sneaker.

good news that tres bien is getting diemmes as I've been feeling these tirols for a bit

I remember gnar mentioned some issues

i wondered if they were good for hiking or just looked good

[readytoignite]

i have a tough time believing that the jp EE widths are narrower than D RWs?

[telluride11]

Thank you for the info and insight. Shoes are pain in the ass to order -especially outside EU...

who said anything about ee? i have a pair of RWs in 10D that are slightly snug. when i tried on the ML2s in a 10D, they were painfully small.

Japanese MLII's only come in width EE, whereas American MLII's come in widths medium, D, and EE. The American ones are less than half the price of the Japanese, and appear to be the same boots!

Sick boots. Totally bombproof. I got my sizing issues straightened out and I'm stoked on them. Buy your true size, don't expect them to stretch. They'll break in your feet before you break them in. If they ain't comfortable out of the box they don't fit.

[superBobo]

Anyone tried these? I have Paraboot michaels, which are great, so I can only imagine the hikers being superb aswell...

[Eccles]

thats a strong endorsement on the diemmes

I hope I can convince chcm to ship to me

Don't mean to repost these but i had a lot of messages last year for them. Im going to be putting them up for sale if anyone is still interested.

native for barneys co-op, got about 3 years ago maybe longer. sz. 12 run true to size maybe lil smaller i wear an 11 in russell moccasin and red wing. these fit perfect. made in italy

Kampala is pretty much a second-hand clothing gold mine. I don't get a lot of time to walk around the shops, but the other day I was walking the street and caught sight of these:

anybody heard of "Woodstone"?

The fleece lining looked a little worn but otherwise they were in damn-near perfect condition.

I'm not a huuuuuge fan of the hiking-boot look, but I'm a sucker for blue suede shoes. Unfortunately they're about a size big on me (I was wearing dress socks and my toes were touching the end of the boot). The seller's first price was 60,000 shillings (~$30), which means I probably coulda talked her down to $15-20. I Wish they'd fit!

[Sigur Rós]

Could someone recommend a good over pronation insole for a hiking boot such as the Danner mountain light.

Thanks.
