I have like 80 miles in mine. One of my feet is high volume so the one side wrap tongue doesn’t seal too well, but I’ve had them on in snow, marshes and creeks and only ever got wet over the top. My 12.5s (should’ve got 13s) are 712 grams.

They’re crazy light, very stiff and have a very nice factory insole. I’d order your EU size from other brands. They only take semi auto crampons if that matters to you. The outsole being very hard, and hard wearing, means traction on wet rock will suck, but wet rock traction is always terrible.

Mine have worn very bomber. Multiple hits to the upper from decomposed, jagged granite hasn’t worn them much. The soles are in great shape given the load and distance.

I wouldn’t hesitate to buy them again. Pics are from last time I wore them. I’d wear them more if A) I got the right size, and B) if I didn’t have an impulse problem regarding boot buying.

I have a pair as well. They fit a wide foot better than a La Sportiva, more like a Scarpa, and they are crazy light! No complaints at this point...

I wear a 45.5 in both scarpa and Mammut - I have 3 Scarpa shoes / boots and 2 mammut including these. If you already have a boot that compares, I would keep the same size.

I meant do you size up from your "Nike" US sizing?

Don’t know, but looking back, I should’ve bought a 47/13 vs 46-2/3//12.5. Until I started paying attention to European sizing, fit was usually hit or miss for me.

I keep the same sizing as my running shoes.

I know an old thread but figured I'd add some info. I've worn out the upper (peeled/chipped rand torn in the fake leather portion, hole in the soft squishy material in the side) on 1 pair in 12 months of NZ south island hunting (probably about 100 odd days) but by about the 4th trip they definitely weren't waterproof. Brought a second pair in August last year and somewhere in 22 days scouting Colorado mule deer in August and September then 2 days hunting and packing Mule deer I found they where no longer waterproof when helping out my second cousin on a Bighorn hunt down near Silverton. They are still alive but showing the same signs of the upper going as the last set. For similar boots i had good luck with the Scarpa Ribelle (the inside heel wears out but i preemptively sew in some leather) and will buy a set of the La Sportiva Aequilibrium LTs for a crampon boot and maybe try play with some less stiff options.
