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.

The Grivel Air Tech New- Matics are excellent multi-use crampons. In many ways an ideal crampon for winter walking and mountaineering in the UK, and indeed classic alpinism in the mountains of Europe. These crampons benefit from low weight and low profile, they are dexterous and easy to walk in. They excel on mixed terrain, as the points are a little shorter than many, more traditional crampons. This means you feel more planted, not up on 'stilts', when crossing rock and they feel light, precise and nimble. They are an intelligently designed modern crampon that bridges the gap between a walking crampon and mountaineering crampon. Because of this the Air tech will fit a wider range of B1/B2 footwear
The Air Tech New-Matic Crampons lack the very aggressive front points of the Grivel G12 and G14, so are less well suited to more technical or vertical terrain, but for the majority of users the Air Tech's cover most bases. They represent an excellent modern walking/mountaineering 12 point crampon design and definitely blur the boundaries between the old C1/C2 ratings.
Due to their lightness, versatility and small pack size, the Grivel Air Tech NMs will also appeal to Ski Mountaineers and alpine trekkers.
