With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

English language climbing guide to Sicily.
Less than ten years ago vertical Italy was still undiscovered, few places had been explored and few walls climbed by some local climbers or a few from the mainland. Today this wonderful island has become one of the favourite desinations of climbers from all over the world and a reference point for climbing around the Mediterranean.
In this third edition (2012) the areas proposed have increased to nearly a hundred. What a change from 1994 when there were only 43! This innovation lies mainly in the area around San Vito Lo Capo in the Trapani region, and also thanks to the impetus from the now famous international gathering which links up with the most important European areas. But climbing Sicily is not only San Vito... Every year, there are more and more young Sicilians who discover and bolt new areas like Contrada Alfano near Syracuse or the new crags in the Ragusa region.
There are also plenty of contributions from climbers of other Italian regions or from abroad, who together with the locals continue to offer new crags and beautiful routes up the highest walls. This makes for an enthusiastic collaboration with newer and more compelling pages to write on the story of climbing in Sicily.
