Sir Ranulph Fiennes appeared in The Daily Telegraph last week.

In a fashion spread entitled: 'Sir Ranulph Fiennes the reluctant model'. (A headline presumably based on the fact that he doesn't look too happy in some of the shots.)

However, in one outfit he's wearing, we were delighted to see that he's shod in a pair of brasher Supalite GTX boots. Hope he liked them.

And although he may have looked uncomfortable in front of the camera, we hope he approved of the legendary out of the box comfort our boots are known for.

Of course, Sir Ranulph is far more at home on a hill-walk than the cat-walk, and this week sees him setting off on a new monumental challenge.

Wednesday, the 2nd of April saw him fly out to Kathmandu to prepare to climb Everest. He will take the South Col route from Nepal, which was first climbed in 1953 by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay.

An expedition, he hopes to raise £3 million for Marie Curie Cancer Care's palliative programme, Delivering Choice.
