Provenance:
This pair are actually ‘Expedition’ cloggers, bigger than their counterparts and stronger with the body made from high strength aluminium alloy sheet. This was much tougher and less likely to break than their rival ‘Jumars’ which were made from die-cast alloy. This pair came from Mick Tighe’s personal ‘rack’.
