Best Mountaineering Boots In 2017
The mountaineering boots are built to withstand any kind of weather, whether avoiding negative temperatures or keeping your feet dry while in the snow. There are different types of mountaineering boots: single boots, double boos as well as full on gaiter boots. Each of these types has its own features and used for different mountain-orientated activities such as mountain walking, climbing, and through ferrate. Although there is a big difference between mountain boots and standard walking boots, there are certain features that are the same for both. However, for a little help on specific boots, here is a review of the top three best mountaineering boots in 2017, from lightweight to the heaviest models.
1. Arc’teryx Acrux Mountaineering Boot
This mountaineering boot defines what we call revolutionary. Acrux is a double boot is not heavy, clunky, horribly bulky and non-breathable model. It is quite unique and different from others, and like the first leather football and smart device, it is truly a game changer.
