Title: non-stinking anasazi alternatives?
Post by: weakdave on June 21, 2014, 10:38:34 pm

Ok ukbers... I need help. I love my anasazis but in the summer months they are not nice to be around! Mrs weak doesnt like them in the house and we are moving to a place where I wont have a shed for a while. I need a similar fitting shoe that doesnt hum... katanas and vapour vs dont fit my feet (not since scarpa changed to xsedge).
 Any suggestions?

30 degree wash, gentle cycle.

I previously left my shoes outside the window of flats, secured by accessory chord through the heel loops. A combination of the UV and drying them out neutralises the bugs for a bit. Drying shoes too thoroughly does change the fit though.

I've seen people use talcum powder in their shoes after climbing to dry them out. Might help?

My girlfriend's got some boot bananas, they're rad.

They are rad.




Nobody buys them.


I am sad.

I have them in my anasazis, they now just smell different.
