Finally got a pair of boots. Always had a pair of Meindl walking boots and wanted something lighter. After ordering a number of pairs online and sending them back I decided on a pair of 'light weight' Meindl Air Active
Well they arrived and they are fantastic. Then I got to thinking that they feel similar to the original Meindls. Got the kitchen scales out and weighed them - each boot is 100 grams less - a massive saving then of 200 grams. YES, 200!!
I've no idea what difference that'll make to a day's trekking although at my level of physical fitness it will probably shave a second or two off something!! Billo
