Features

The BATURA is the super light crampon connection for cold weather ice fall climbers and go fast alpinists. With the fit of a single boot and the warmth of plastics the BATURA is built for long days of technical climbing, deep cold and even charging 6,000 meter peaks.
Warmer and lower profile than your present single boots, the BATURA has a precise fit for highly technical climbing and bridges the gap between simple single boots and bulkier, heavy double boots. This new design integrates six layers of boot, insulation and outer cover into a stream-lined package of warmth and climbing power. Outer is crafted from stretchy, breathable Elastic Cordura and Schoeller Dynamic material (with water repellant membrane) and features an asymmetrical wrap-around waterproof Riri Storm Zip for natural and unrestricted ankle flex. The BATURAS height and weight is similar to the TRANGO EL and is built on the NEPAL EVO last - a bit roomier up front for extra warm socks and some toe wiggling room. Count on Vibram rubber rand, Vibram Impact Brake System and SBR Aircushion midsole with 8-9 mm TPU/PU Inserts. Insole sports 9mm Ibi-Thermo insulation for protection from the ground up cold. Accepts all crampons and delivered anywhere in North America - Fit Guaranteed - with faxed dimensioned outine of your feet. Order up a pair and get our ALPINIST or INSULATED SUPERGAITERS 1/2 price!
