SubscribeCan You Recommend Boots for Climbing Kilimanjaro?
Posted on Oct 11, 2008 under Gear |We often get asked for recommendations on gear items. There are a myriad of quality brands and products, so what you ultimately find visually appealing, functional and economical is a personal choice. However, we would like to point out specific products that we find outstanding.
Boots used on Mount Kilimanjaro should be warm, waterproof and comfortable. And for these characteristics, we find that the Asolo TPS 520 GTX Hiking Boot is a top performer. These heavy duty boots are high cut, constructed of full grain leather, and have a breathable Gore-Tex membrane. Many rave about the comfort of these boots, right out of the box. However, always break in your boots before using them for extended periods of time.
These boots retail for $230. You can purchase them online at REI.

I would say, well fitting,strong and comfortable, are the most important features required. Try on plenty of different brands, as what suits you, might not suit everyone. Also make sure to wear thick socks (if not two pairs) it is cold up there!

Edit…wear the thick socks, when fitting the boots.
