As the title says: these are nice boots!I only really buy good kit, as such a lot of my kit is old and has lasted me years. Other than these I have two pairs of walking boots, some ancient very stiff full bore, hardcore, mountain boots and some wrecked super slouchy la sportivas for everything else. I needed to replace the Sportiva's for everyday walking but also wanted somthing less severe and more comfortable for moutain walking. I'm unlikely to winter climb in mountains but wanted somthing that could take walking carmpons for winter. I looked and researched A Lot!.. Full kit geek mode for a couple of weeks! !.. And settled on a pair of these.I had heard that sizing could be an issue and some people had said they need to size up 0.5 of a UK size, so I measured my feet carefully and ordered a UK9.5 based on the Mammut sizing guide measurements (I'm usually a uk9), so they do come up small on the advertised size, but are spot on the measurement in mm that Mammot advertises... If that makes sense... So my advise would be, check the Mammot size chart and measure your feet.Out of the box they look the business! Everything about them screams quality, the rubber surround was a must have for me as I'm fairly heavy on boots and tend to nick and gouge leather around the toes and sides. This aspect of the boot is really solidly constructed. All the lacing eyes look really solidly made, everything just looks decent. My one reservation on ordering are the fabric inserts around the tounge. I walk on the moors a bit and live in very muddy wet countryside, I need boots to be waterproof when water comes up over the top of the laces. A solid leather upper like the equivalent Altbergs or my heavy old mountain boots, provide this but I find that sometimes having a lot of leather folded over the top of my foot can get uncomfortable, I can't speak for the Altbergs which look beautiful, but that's my experience of my older heavy leather boots. My sportivas have fabric panels between soft leather with gortex, and they have been pretty good, only leaking a bit in their later years. Anyway, back to the Mammuts: so time will tell on the waterproofing front. So, they look amazing! First fitting: felt fairly stiff but very supported and very comfortable. The stiffness is mostly just the new leather and materials that will break in. The sole is walking crampon compatable, so pretty stiff but not completely. The lacing zones allow me to accodate my slightly wierd feet nicely. I have lean feet that are fairly skinny, but some how spread out quite wide around my toes. The Mammuts felt quite snug around the wide part of my feet, so I can leave the lower section of lacing fairly loose, but then tighten up the zone across the top of my ankle around around my ankle to prevent any heal slip that might come from otherwise loose laces. I knew within 10minites that I wasn't sending them back, so I wore them around the house for a couple of hours them went for a muddy footpath/fields walk for a few miles with the dog. Waterproofing was fine when stood with submerged feet, with the leather wet and just a few miles of walking I could already feel them soften up a bit and bed into the shape of my feet. I waxed them later on in the day which darkens the boots that some people might not like. But I don't really care about that sort of thing, it helps the leather condition and break in and obviously it good for many reasons in the long run. Comfort wise, they're spot on. Snug, supportive with zero heal lift and no indication that anything is going to rub or create problems. I'll do a longer moorland walk at the weekend and will edit this if I feel differently.Overall I can't see these boots not lasting or causing any discomfort. Mammut are a decent brand that have been around a while and they wouldn't sell crap, and these boots seem to be everything I was looking for. Time will tell, but so far 10 out of 10.Edit: I've had these for a few weeks now, I've probably walked 70+km in them, all very wet and muddy, some snow a pretty cold moorland stuff, some scrambling on rocky stuff.. As above: I absolutely love these boots! Warm, dry and all things nice ?
