Great Caving Boots
Posted: Jan 16, 2012 6:19 pm
I'm so happy with my relatively new caving boots. I just went on my 5th cave trip with these boots and love them. Their tread is aggressive which gives me great traction on wet rocks/boulders, plus the tread is far enough apart that they don't get gummed up with mud. Since they are 15" high on the leg my feet stay dry while most everyone else that I cave with ends up with wet/muddy feet. I realize that they are not expensive, but so far they have been great for the type of caving I do.
I paid $37 for mine at the following store, but I believe allot of safety and industrial supply stores carry them. I chose the model without steel toe protection so I have a little more flexibility in tight crawling passages. I have used them in Tumbling Rock, Limrock, Pettijohns x2 and Ellisons.
