Inov-8 contacted me this morning noting they’d like to offer Backpacking Light readers 30% off select models of their shoes from now until December 31st.

1. Register at http://store.inov-8.us (opens in new window)

2. Select from the Roclite 370, 390 GTX, Mudclaws, or the Roclite 315 (color silver) models.

3. Enter coupon code: BPL105 to receive a 30% discount.

Well that is a huge temptation!

But two things …
1) they already list the Roclite 390 GTX at $95 … more than 30% off the $160 MSRP
2) not to be greedy or anything (heh-heh) but I'd try that coupon code on the sale price and it repied that the code was invalid … same result trying it on Roclite 315's (which are not on sale).

Maybe they announced the code before they programmed it?

Not working for me either. If someone gets this to work please let us know because I would love to have a pair of 370's.

I've contacted Inov-8 to see if they have any words of wisdom to share regarding the coupon code.

Weird,

First thing this morning I looked at the website and most shoes were listed in the 44.00 to 48.00 dollar range. Now, many of the low prices have been removed and listed at full price….

Did we uncover a pricing mistake, and give them a heads up to fix it?

I am interested but don't know how their sizing runs. Can anyone tell me if they run large or small or just right?

From the folks at Inov-8:

…coupons must be applied in the cart, not during checkout. Perhaps not
very logical but that's the way the system is set up. Customers must click the "My Cart" link and apply coupons there before checking out. If this still doesn't work, feel free to tell your readership the office number here, and we'll process an order for them manually with the discounts.

Yes, Chris, that phone # worked. Just ordered several pair at 30% off the sale price. What a deal!

One pair of oversized 390GTX are on their way, 30% off an already attractive sale price and in time to test ideas from Will R’s Lightweight Footwear Systems for Snow Travel series in the upcoming winter … how nice is that!?
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3

Deals that good make me wonder if certain models are being phased out.

I purchased a pair of boots from them this morning. I had to call in order to use the coupon. She told me they are having problems with it on the website. But ended up with a pair of Roclite 390 GTXs for $66.95 plus shipping. Can't complain about that.

How much did you size up? 1 full size or 1.5?
I plan to use liner sock/vapor barrier/ & mid or heavyweight wool sock combo myself-as article suggests.

I usually wear a 13 sneaker and have used the 390's in a 14. They're excellent. Extremely lightweight and comfortable. I just ordered a second pair with this sale. Couldn't pass up the opportunity. I ordered the 370's too. Thanks, Eric

"2. Select from the Roclite 370, 390 GTX, Mudclaws, or the Roclite 315 (color silver) models. "

What about the other clearance models on the page? Does this apply to 310, 300, 335, 320?

PostedNov 10, 2009 at 6:14 am

Well I just called and placed an order. They ended up giving me full 30 off everything. 390 gtx/flites(gym/road) and some gaiters. He hooked it. Flites were also in clearance. I'm not sure they would do it again for me though. Right time, right person.
Thanks Inov-8.
