Boots for Caving

Before you go in a cave don't go alone and don't go without any guide. It's very, very important. It's dangerous. This one is a dry cave. But in a wet cave this protects you under this line. So it's good to wear your overall like this on the boot because as you are crawling somewhere little rocks are going in your boot. So if you wear it like this it cannot go in. It's very good because there are no shoe laces which means that you just take it and you go and it's not very expensive as well. Especially when your feet are very muddy, it's very bad to work with it so that's why we are using boots. Still in a sitting position. It's longer than you expected. And for fun there is a little step so just watch your butt on it.
