Montane Men's Prism high-top

Product Information

We do not offer to reimburse postage costs if an item doesn't fit / you don't like it / change of mind etc. In our many years of selling samples, we have found that 99% of them are exactly the same as the finished production version. However, the “gripping sole” requirement was triggered by an accident on one of the Everest expeditions that appeared on climbing news feeds — at Camp 2, one of the climbers stepped outside his tent in his smooth-soled booties and slipped on the snow. Montane also uses PrimaLoft®’s performance yarn in its Primino range to create supremely comfortable and ultra fast drying baselayers. The sole is made from a tough Hypalon rubber for increased durability and allows you to walk in and out of the tent without having to change your shoes.

We are committed to reducing our environmental impact and to being transparent with consumers, to give you confidence about the origin of your Montane products. My wearing and use of the booties extended over a two and a half month period, serving as my around-the-house slipper/booties as well as in the tent and campsite wear shown in the other photos. Please do not use the `Remember me` option if using a computer with public access or that is used by more than one person.

I’d gotten used to Montane gear being top notch in design and material, but they’ve really dropped the ball with this one. And, of course, since we did not wear our boots inside the ger, the booties provided comfortable foot cover. There is emphasis on a brand’s business practices and how this can make direct sustainable change, alongside factory audits and worker interviews. The openings as others have stated are smaller or tight so if you have a thicker foot/high arch you could have issue putting them on.

Faults deemed to have been caused by misuse or improper care (including washing not in accordance with the product wash care instructions) are not covered by the guarantee. As can be seen in the photo, the two ends of the elastic were wrapped together in some cloth and stitched together (by hand? The insulation comes in the form of 160g/m2 PrimaLoft® GOLD Insulation throughout the Bootie upper that is warm, packable and exceptionally fast drying.

The next photo shows the stuff sack with both booties stuffed inside with a ruler to show the compact size and tiny amount of space they would take in an ultralight backpack. As I pulled the elastic cord to tighten the bag and compress the booties into a very small space, one end of the cord came loose and slid out of the drawstring tube. They work directly with brands, factories, trade unions, NGOs and governments to establish a living wage and a working environment that’s free from gender-based violence, discrimination and harassment.

My initial walks around the house, onto the patio, and up and down the fairly steep stairs showed that the Montanes fit as expected with no excess slippage and no floppiness that would allow walking out of them.The boot is insulated with 160g of Primaloft Gold that keeps your feet warm and dry and is also easily packable, and Grip Control in the inner sole prevents this insulation from slipping to provide better stability and last.

I'm a footwear designer, and I have designed a couple of these types of indoor booties myself, and I have to say these are fantastic. Lightweight, but comfortable, foot covering for use in and around camp is a very desirable thing to have after a day of hiking or climbing, as well as waiting out a storm in the tent. THE WAY TO USE THE PRISM BOOTIES IS TO WARM THEM IN A POCKET AGAINST YOUR SKIN WHILST IN YOUR LINERS AND GETTING YOUR SLEEPING GEAR READY (YOU COULD EVEN CARRY THEM ALL DAY IN A POCKET IF YOU’RE REALLY KEEN), THEN DO A QUICK SWITCH WHEN YOU GET IN YOUR SLEEPING BAG, MOVING THE LINERS TO INSIDE YOUR BAG OR JACKET SO THEY CAN NOW DRY.

Lightweight Prism booties for insulated, packable comfort when camping at the end of a hard day in the mountains. The Prism Bootie from Montane is a lightweight, fully insulated camping slipper designed for maximum warmth and comfort at the end of a hard day's hiking or skiing. Take them with you on expedition in the Himalaya or a multi day adventure in the Scottish Cairngorms. Engineered to provide insulation for the worst cold and wet weather conditions possible and the ‘go-to’ choice for adventurers looking for protection in extreme conditions. People say they are a bit tight to get on,I didn't find that to be the case,I have quite slim ankles though.
