NOT long ago a friend complained about his travels while climbing the mountain.
He
complained that his feet had blisters because of the climb. Indeed,
the only time the two friends are doing the climb so things to consider when
going up the mountain is still ill-prepared.
He told me that
his feet had scuffed pretty badly because it does not prepare seriously used
shoes for climbing. In fact, shoes
are an important factor in the climb. Here
are some things you can consider to choosing shoes for mountain climbing.
First, choose a
shoe size bigger than the shoes we wear everyday. This is to
provide more space for our feet. For
example, if usually worn size 39, choose size 40-41 in choosing mountaineering
boots. This
is done because when the climb we will wear layers of socks to ease cold
mountains, which can often be extreme cold. In
addition, while descending the mountain, we will pass a variety of conditions
that are often full derivative rocks so durability is expected to be more
powerful legs. If
you wear the right size foot, with our feet had blisters easily. Choose
shoes that pass too high ankle sprain that is not.
Second, choose a
shoe mount with shapes and patterns in accordance with our feet. Sol is padded comfort is
key. Usually
the climbers will choose mountaineering boots with vibram soles. Tread
design on the sole is shaped tank trail aims to provide traction on wide range
of surfaces and has high abrasion resistance.
The third point
to be complete selection of mountain boots have a waterproof material. The
most climbers choose mountaineering boots are made of durable synthetic
material of high water, which Polytetrafluoroetylene
(PTFE). With
this material, we do not need to be too concerned when the rain came down and
pass through a small stream or pool of water on the mountain.
Price range
offered for mountain boots varies, beginning from US$ 35 to most expensive
range of US $ 100. You simply
select the appropriate comfort and funds.
