Cheap shoes thread.

Please post on this thread if you come across sale shoes online anywhere! That way we can all find cheap shoes when we need some. Because I can't find any anywhere...

Scarpa Visions are available for 40 quid, plus a load of boreal , 'cos your worth it

Are the Visions a good shoe? I'm thinking of ordering some to replace
my ageing Scarpa Vantages.

Anyone know how the Boreal crux fit? They have a 10 which might be in my range if they run small. I wear a 9.5 miura vs and a 10.5 evolv optimus.

Gremlin, hope you get on with them ok. I know a few people who love their visions. I had velcros of them but they were too flexible for me. The lace ups are stiffer.

EB tends to be more expensive than most, so I don't know how these price up.

La Sportiva Katana = £74.99

Scarpa Vortex = £37.49

Other shizzle

I got the lace-ups, tho' I do find I have to pay special attention to the way I lace them up to get the shoes nice and snug across my entire foot or they do seem a bit flexy.

I just got a pair of katanas for £62 from Go ourtdoors. I went in picked up a pair then invoked the price match thingy by showing them this:

So you could pay them £7 more ? That's what I call supporting your local retailer. Very commendable.  :thumbsup:

£90 at Go Outdoors but their price match policy includes 10% less than the other advertised price so £69 less 10% leaves the (rounded) figure of £62.

What slackers said.

For info though, the other supplier that you're price matching with must have the size you want in stock or go outdoors won't match it.

BB / Slackers

Cheers. That 10% extra discount is well worth knowing about.

(Sorry about the earlier comment - I thought I was being amusing but it just looks sarky now)

I forgive you, but if it happens again I'll pay Slackers to inform you of the benefits of open source software.  ;D
