Does anyone know anything about them? Are they worth the money? Do they last? Will they last in heavy marine construction/pile driving?

If anyone would know about Mammoet work boats it'd be Mammoet Bob and he'd have the model on his shelf if they did.

Justin,
If they (Mammoet), are like Deere and Cat,they won't put their name on it unless it meets their specs and standards. But,beware of the copy cats and fake logos.

Deere and Cat boots are a joke. The only boot that holds up for me is Dr. Martens. These last me 4-6 months. Being soaked in saltwater, oil, grease, dirt 24 hours a day 7 days a week tends to break them down. If I dry out my boots every night they fall a part faster. Just the nature of the beast. Diehard boats are a joke, Texas Steer isent bad for a cheap boot (Maybe a month or 2 for me). Justin

I have had my CAT Boots for 4 years (have to keep getting new ones cause my feet just keep growing). But they hold up well, and they have been though allot. Alaska's.

i dont think that Mammoet makes boats you can wear on your feet, they make boots but what kind of boats you trying to wear? Pontoon? Sail? Speed? Paddle? might be hard to make fit to your feet but im sure somebody could make it work

PileDriving,
I agree about the boots. I'll get maybe two years,three if I'm lucky out of mine. Mixing and working with Winter salt/sand and chloride take a toll on mine too. Rubber outer covers help,but it's like walking around with bricks on your feet.
Walking to school and feet growin' don't count when it comes to wearing out boots Austin. "Our" boots (if'n your feet ever quit growin'),would last you a life time. :d/

Just my 2 cents ...but I truly don't think you should be taking advice regarding work boots off anyone still in school. They have been nowhere and done nothing in the industrial environment and working for their dad doesn't cut it either.
I would try the Mammoet boots because they are proven for the conditions that Mammoet work entails and I would hazard to guess that there aren't many school children that have been in the conditions that Mammoet operate under around the world.
