Rewards Program Terms and Conditions
Last updated January 1st, 2020
Opting-in to Moosejaw Rewards:
All users must accept these terms and conditions and create an account with Moosejaw to opt-in to the program and earn, accrue, retain and redeem Moosejaw Reward Dollars (MJ$). The program is FREE to join and membership is ongoing until or unless the user requests to be removed or is removed due to abuse of the program. Users can opt-in to the program while checking out on Moosejaw.com or at one of our stores or at any time within 30 days of purchase to accrue the MJ$ earned on that purchase. Once opted-in to the program, MJ$ will earn and accrue for redemption as described below until the MJ$ expire or the user leaves the program.
All information collected and used to facilitate the Moosejaw Rewards program is directly related to the program's ability to provide value to the customer. A customer opting-in to the Moosejaw Rewards program is a separate action from establishing a user profile as a result of making a purchase.
The program opt-in requirement was added on August 6th, 2019. Existing program members prior to that date must still formally opt-in and accept the terms and conditions to continue to retain, earn and redeem MJ$. Pre-existing program members that fail to opt-in prior to June 28, 2020 will be removed from the program, and any unused MJ$ will be voided. We really, really don't want to that to happen, so please opt-in or we'll feel terrible.
Leaving Moosejaw Rewards Program:
You may choose to leave the Moosejaw Rewards program at any time by logging in and clicking on the “Opt out Rewards Program” link within the My Account Summary page, Email, calling 877-MOOSEJAW (877-666-7352) or in-store with help from our employees. If you leave the rewards program, any unused MJ$ will be voided upon completion of your request.
Earning MJ$:
All items we sell are eligible with the exception of gift cards or other items specifically noted. Full-priced items earn 10% back while discounted items earn 2.5%. "Discounted items" includes items on sale or discounted via coupon code or use of MJ$. You do not earn MJ$ for shipping or tax charges, only from the item value. MJ$ expire two years after earning and are redeemed on a first-in, first out basis (in other words, we always use your oldest MJ$ that are closest to expiration).
Checking & Redeeming MJ$:
On Moosejaw.com, just sign-in on any page to see your available balance. Once signed in, you will see your available MJ$ and maximum that can be redeemed in the payment section of the checkout process. In stores, provide the email address attached to your account to learn your balance and apply to your purchase. We will also send you a monthly email that details your balance and other account activity. This is a transactional email that you will receive even if you are not subscribed to our marketing emails.
Bonus Rewards Promotions:
Every so often, we'll have special offers where you can earn bonus MJ$, like an additional 10%, 20% or 40% back. So if we are running a 50% back special offer, and you buy a regular-priced item for $100.00, you will receive MJ$10.00 in base points, and a bonus of MJ$40. These special offers may have a cap on how many bonus MJ$ you earn during the promotion, but you will always earn the base Reward Dollars. Make sure to check us out on our social channels for other ways to win some extra MJ$!
MJ$ on Gift Cards:
You don't get earn MJ$ when you buy a gift card, but you do get MJ$ when you spend a gift card. Sorry gift givers. You're welcome gift receivers.
Product Returns and MJ$:
If you return an item, we deduct the MJ$ earned on that item from your balance. If you used the MJ$ and your balance is less than deduction, then your refund is reduced by the difference.
Program Abuse:
The intent of the program is to provide our loyal customers with a way to buy great gear for less. Moosejaw reserves the right to remove any user from the program and zero out their MJ$ balance if Moosejaw determines that the user is abusing the program by buying for resale, attempting to game the program or any other reason at Moosejaw's sole discretion.
Are you Sure?
Our Rewards Program is completely FREE and easy to use.
By opting out, you forfeit all the Moosejaw Rewards Dollars your currently have in your account, which is basically throwing away free money. What would your grandmother say about that? If you're 100% sure, please click "OptOut" below.
We want to make extra-sure you realize that you've added a special order item to your cart. These items take a little longer to get to you because we have to order from the manufacturer first. The "Est. Ship Date" is the date we expect items to leave our warehouse... so add your chosen shipping speed to see when it will show up at your door.

FitThese boots do not fit normal-wide feet. The Lowa Tibet has always fit well, so I tried these. In tennis shoe socks they are WAAYYY to tight along the side with an extremely small toe box. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THESE BOOTS.

great 3 seasons mountaineering bootsI bought this boot to replace my backpacking boots (Salomon GTX 4D), which did not survive my GR 10 trek in the Pyrenees (France). The main different is the benefits of the rigid sole in the Lowa boots. The boot has an excellent grip and traction of varied terrain (mud to boulders), even under wet conditions. The boots stand out in comparison with the Salomon, which wet traction was less than adequate ( this was not mentioned in the review published by Backpacker, which misled me in buying the Salomon for my trek: btw after 600 miles of trekking, the boots sole has little structure left and the upper are splitting at the seams!...). Bottomline, if you don't want to feel every rock underneath your foot or on the side of the boots, get the Lowa; This matters in an alpine environment with hikes above 8 miles/day. The boots need some breaking in, but it is not bad.
On the technical side, the boot is compatible with semi-automatic and automatic crampons (note that a flexible sole like the sole in the Salomon are not designed for the use of crampons). I also like the effectiveness of the lock system which gives different levels of tightness between the foot area and the ankle area.

Awesome BootsBought these to climb Huntington Ravine on Mt Washington
They fit great and were plenty warm enough with thick wool socks, despite the -38 temps near the top
My feet always fit LaSportiva makalu last boots
These fit very similar with maybe a little more room in the toe box
With the Gore-tex, slight insulation, and stiff shank...plus badass lacing system...
They are incredibly boots

Great boots!!!I bought these boots a month ago they are stiff, which I prefer for steep rocky terrain. I have been on 4 really good hikes with these boots and they felt great on my feet right out of the box.

Impressed with my second LowaFinding Lowa makes some comfortable boots out of the box. Started with Lowa Renegades, and have now added the Mountain Expert to my arsenal to take some winter trekking in the rockies.
I want to know if I should get a half size bigger or should I get my true size?
Asked by: 007Mann
Great question! It is always suggested to go at least a half size bigger to accommodate for your thick socks. Some people have gone up one whole size because they wear multiple pairs of socks for extra warmth. If you don't plan to wear heavy socks and your feet are more on the narrow side, then I would stick with your usual size. I hope this helps!

Im wanting to buy these boots, i like the way they look and i like the way they are built... however i live in the piney woods of Texas.. No mountains! Would these boots hurt my feet on flat ground???
Asked by: shanelee
Hey there shanelee!
That's a super good question. Some Alpine/Mountaineering boots can be SUPER stiff and uncomfortable right out of the box, but these are definitely more user-friendly. They do require some breaking in, but the amazing support makes these boots more comfortable and approachable. Hope this helps!
