Have Lowa Tibets that weigh almost 4.5lbs and want to get closer to 2.5lbs. These will be used in the higher elevations and in wet weather so looking for something waterproof. Considering the Crispi Lapponia Lite at about 2.25lbs or the Lowa Renegades at about 2.6lbs or Lowa Innovo at about 2.32lbs. Any recommendations and other boots to look at?
 
What size? I wear a 13 and can’t get under 3lbs unless I give up some durability and waterproofing. Currently using Hanwag allverstone at 3.5lbs. Those might be worth a look because of the flexible ankle area seems to negate some of the weight strain.
 
I wear a 10.5, sometimes 11. The Crispi weight above is on a size 10. I didnt notice what size they used for the Lowa weights.
 
La Sportiva Aquelibrium if you have feet on the narrow side. I wear EU 44 and they are just over 3 lbs a pair. You get much lower than that it's hard to have any durability
 
Take a good look at the Crispi colorados those are my go to for a lightweight boot with lots of support for heavier packouts. The lapponias can get old in steep country with lots of weight.
