Funny you should say that Kev has one on test right now! Stay tuned.
Hello, I am reading your blog, I find it very interesting and well done.
Just a small detail: Salewa is Italian, not German. I know, in an age of multinationals…but it’s like we call here in IT DMM English, I guess our friends from Wales wouldn’t appreciate that too much.
I was about to buy a Mutant too…I will wait until you review is published on your site. I look forward to it.
Thx! Cheers

Thank you for your reply Gianfrancesco. You are absolutely correct, Salewa is an Italian company whose roots began in Germany. Indeed it still has a base in Munich but we will refer to it as Italian in future articles. The Miage review is due very soon – we’re very glad you enjoy our reviews. Happy climbing! Dave.
