I am still amazed on how much lighter my FT's are over my old Dabello Rampages. Night & day difference. My wife got FT's partly due to the weight savings over other women specific boats also.

comparing the booters to the spks (assuming FT weight is per boot and spk is per pair) the booter is 2lbs lighter which is 907.2g which is a fair amount of weight. i ride in spks and have never found them to be particularly heavy but seeing the actual weights it does make me wonder. with the FT being so light i could see a point of argument that they have maybe gone a little too far on the weight saving and so have lost a bit on durability (supposedly) but id rather not go into a boot comparison slagging match.
