I'm looking to buy a pair of b3 boots and had pretty much settled on the sportiva Nepal extremes, but just today I came across the mammut Nordwand TL boots and thought they looked really good for the price. What do people think?
As everyone else has said, try them - they are very different shapes IMO. Also if you want the Sportiva equivalent of the Nordwand, you should really be looking at Baturas not Nepals
The sportiva definitely fit well, I'm going to order the nordwands and try them on. If they were both to fit perfectly would the nordwands be a better choice then?
