Due to the leather upper, this boot is a little heavier than its nylon counter parts. However, it provides more ankle support. The boot is awesome. Comfortable, lightweight for a "heavy weight" boot. If you are carrying extremely heavy loads you may want to purchase a heavier boot. However, for the 1-day to multi week backpacker/hiker, don't pass up this boot.
