Just looking for some insight on these boots. Stiffness, durability, ect. Thanks!
Do you mind reaching out once your makra's arrive. I'm a solid 10 in a Nike and a lot of shoes but sometime a 9.5. Sounds like I should get a 10 but it would be nice to hear how they end up fitting you now knowing what your typical "Nike size" is. I think Nike tends to run a tad small.According to GoHunt website they fit true to size and recommend that you buy the same size as you would wear in a nike. Depending on the nike model I wear a 9 in some and a 9.5 in others.
I can tell you I wear nike 11 and my makra 11s were my favorite boot ever. However, they are a narrow boot. Look up the go hunt review on makra. They tell you at which width of foot you should go up a size. Something like 11cm. If you don’t have super wide feet they’re true to size.Do you mind reaching out once your makra's arrive.

I will check that out, sounds like a 10 may be my thing. I will look into the wide thing.

Go-hunt listed the makra at a stiffness level 4 and the ferrata at a 5. I’ve had the Ferrata for about a month with about 40-50 miles on them. They’ve been great so far and have only become more comfortable. I didn’t go up a half size which I may regret when going down hill with a heavy pack. Backcountry had them at $286.
go hunt rated them a flex 3. I would rate them a 4 flex.
