Outdoor in the city
Messner amused by functional clothing in cities
Mountaineering legend Reinhold Messner looks at the trend towards outdoor clothing in city centers with some amusement. "People in the pedestrian zone are dressed as if they want to climb Everest the next day," said the 79-year-old at his Juval Castle near Merano in South Tyrol.
When asked if he had a guilty conscience because he may have contributed to the trend himself, he replied: "No, I don't."
Mountaineering legend often wears outdoor clothing
Messner went on to say that he himself wears a lot of functional clothing - but for practical reasons, not for fashion considerations. The world's most famous mountaineer turns 80 next month.
Messner was the first person to stand on the summit of all 14 eight-thousanders, including the highest mountain of all, Mount Everest. The Italian has an advertising contract with a company that sells outdoor clothing.
