Montane Men's Prism high-top

Product Information

Many of the items we sell will come with the full manufacturer's guarantee. SMU, Ex Display and production products are covered under these conditions.

The booties themselves have stood up well, with little perceptible wear during my usage of them. The one failure happened to the storage bag, as shown in the next photo. I was stuffing the booties into the supplied storage bag during our Asia trip. 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. As can be seen in the photo, the two ends of the elastic were wrapped together in some cloth and stitched together (by hand?).

Hopefully, the forecast of a strong El Nino this winter for the Pacific Coast will provide an opportunity for more testing of the booties, at which point I will add an update. All indications in the testing in California, Japan, and Mongolia are that the Montane Prism booties serve their purpose well, and can replace all the collected booties I have in the closet. 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. The sole is made from tough Hypalon which extends up onto the Bootie upper for some added durability. Whilst this sole is tough, we would recommend limiting the Bootie to indoor/tent use where possible, although it should stand up to a late night bathroom trip if needed.

OUTSIDE OF SHARP END USE THEY MAKE A NICE CAMP SLIPPER, GOOD FOR LOUNGING AROUND BETWEEN TRIPS UP HIGH (MAYBE BRING 2 PAIRS TO LEAVE ONE STASHED AT A HIGH CAMP) AND ACTUALLY FIT OK INSIDE YOUR OUTER SHELLS FOR SHORT TRIPS OUTSIDE. 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. Although we did not encounter any snow storms during the test period, we did spend some time waiting for scattered thunderstorms to die down. 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. The Rab Expedition Slipper is a slipper, not a hut bootie, and is not designed for wear outside of the quilt or for walking around. TractionAs with all the gear I use, I have developed a set of requirements for the “resting in camp” footwear. The instant I slipped the Rab Expedition Slipper on, my feet instantly felt warmer. The 800 FP down is lofty, and the drawstring closure around the ankle ensures heat retention. This is the first slipper I’ve had that provides real four-season comfort. Weight
