Boreal Joker Plus montage, 4 kbFor long days on mountain rock, or laid-back low-grade cragging sessions, this comfy and supportive shoe is easy on the feet, says Dan Bailey

Good review, so good I looked to buy some from the advertiser listed below the article, Kong. They have two sizes advertised only, 10.5 and 7. Neither of which is my size so not very helpful.

The Cold Mountain link is to the Joker Lace, which I ordered before noticing it was not for the plus. This is pretty disappointing, not to say expensive and time wasting.

Hi Fruit,

Thanks for the heads-up. I've dropped Cold Mountain Kit a line so that they're aware, and added note next to their BUY NOW Link to specify it is the Joker, not the Joker Plus, that they've got in stock - hopefully this will prevent this happen again.

Hope you manage to find a pair sharp-ish.

Cheers, Cold Mountain are going to try and get me a pair in time for my hols at the start of Sept. they've been pretty cool about it. The thing that caught my eye in the review was comfortable and the size (I'm 13.5), hence the urgent purchase.

Cheers
Fruit

Just wondering what route the first picture is of? Looks lovely.

Hi BigBobby, It's Sgian Dubh on Garbh Bheinn south wall, a brilliant wee Severe that we thought deserves 3 stars (it gets 2 in the SMC guide)

Thanks, might seek that one out when I'm next up North.

Is it possible for shoe manufacturers to put some actual measurements on the width / circumference of the last? I know you said "narrow", from experience I would bet good money that my feet would be rattling round like a pea in a drum.
