Find your situation?
Made for some — wrong for others.
You need a proven, low-risk shoe with broad consensus backing.
High trust signal from 421 reviews with 4.5/5 rating, mature Mammut brand, and settled product design make this a safe, consensus choice.
You value established heritage and prestige in your outdoor gear.
Mammut is a tier-3 established brand with strong reputation; Sertig II positions as a quality offering, though not a flagship luxury line.
You want hiking shoes that work straight out of the box.
Lightweight, waterproof low-cut design with strong comfort fit requires minimal break-in or adjustment—ready to wear on the trail.
You want reliable trail shoes without overpaying for brand prestige.
Mid-range street price with strong 4.5/5 rating and solid core specs (waterproofing, comfort, grip, durability) deliver good value, though not the cheapest option available.
You seek shoes that delight beyond specs—thoughtful design and feel matter.
Solid comfort and weight ratings suggest good sensory experience, but data lacks evidence of passionate design praise or aesthetic standout.
You demand objectively top-tier performance across every dimension.
High ratings and strong comfort/weight/grip aspects are offset by mid-tier waterproofing and construction integrity—not a clear best-in-class pick. Consider Lone Peak 9.
Grounded in our buyer-review, reviewer-video, price and successor signals — a poor fit names a closer pick · as of Sep 16.

Frequently asked
What buyers want to know.
Is the Sertig II Low GTX actually waterproof?
Waterproofing is the shoe's weakest point. Buyers rate waterproof protection at 3.5 out of 5, and several owners report water leaking in despite the Gore-Tex lining. One long-term owner noted glue failure where parts separate, letting water through. The shoe is designed for wet terrain, but results are mixed in practi…
How comfortable is it for all-day hiking?
Buyers rate comfort and fit highest at 4.8 out of 5. One owner wore them almost daily during a trip—including city walking and multiple rainy days—without complaint, specifically praising how light they feel. Many buyers buy them for hiking and end up wearing them for general wear because comfort wins out.
Will the shoe stay together over time?
The upper and sole are durable, but glue durability is a concern. Buyers praise the tough construction and lace engineering, but some report adhesive failing and parts separating. Durability and build quality rate 4.3 out of 5—solid but not flawless, especially over long wear.
How much does it weigh?
The Sertig II Low GTX is very light. Buyers rate it 4.7 out of 5 for weight and lightness, with one owner noting you can barely feel them on your feet. The shoe ranks in the top choices for lightweight hiking.
Does it grip on wet rock and dirt?
Yes. Buyers rate grip and traction at 4.6 out of 5. Owners report good grip on stone and dirt, and the shoe handles both scrambles and forest paths well enough that hikers trust it on mountain terrain.
Who should buy this shoe and who should skip it?
Buy it if comfort and lightweight feel matter most, and you hike in dry conditions or don't mind the waterproofing risk. Skip it if you need reliable waterproof protection on wet trails—the Gore-Tex doesn't always deliver, and glue failures have frustrated owners who expected better durability at this level.
