Considerably Heavier than Spec's

These are great boots. Extremely well made and very true to size with adequate width for a medium wide foot. They hold up very well to off-trail and wet hiking with heavy loads. They are my go to elk hunting boots and are better than anything else I've tried--Hanwag, Zamberland, Scarpa, Asolo, Lowa, etc. My complaint is that for some reason all the Aku boots I've bought underreport the weight by about 20%. These Superalp NBK boots in a size 45 are ~950 g each, when advertised at 700g. That's a big difference on the foot when hiking Maybe they use the smallest women's size 35 as their representative weight? Whatever the case, they need to start reporting more representative weights, like in an average/median men's size of 42-43.

ROBERT - Superalp NBK GTX

Overall the boot was very comfortable and supportive out of the box. Water proofing was excellent. The sole is heavy and stiff making it excellent in mud and marshy areas. Not as good on sharp rocks and uneven hard terrain. Could use a third eyelet above the center of the boot for a more secure fit

Great for the cold

Just used the boots on a late season Mule deer hunt. -26 at night and -16 during the day (Celsius) for 5 days. Kept my feet warm while moving and feet would stay warm for about 1.5-2 hrs while stationary glassing. Really good stability in the snow and side hilling even with a heavy pack
