Alpine Expedition in 4th Century Roman Gear.

Here is the video summary of our expedition into the Alps of Noricum Mediterraneum in February 2020. We scaled the 2310m high Falkert and tested our 4th century winter gear with open shoes. The gear worked flawlessly and we did not suffer any disadvantages, except for Olivers non-hobnailed shoes being at times slippery. Even with open, low-cut, unnailed shoes (Portchester find), it was possible to achieve two consecutive ascends. You can find a detailed report and pictures of our journey on the Facebook pa
