Same kind of shoe, so weight is a fair tiebreaker.
Both are mid-cut hiking boots. The La Sportiva Ultra Raptor 3 Mid GTX is 80 g a pair lighter than the La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Mid GTX.
Weights are per pair, as the maker or Alpinetrek lists them; they did not always weigh the same size, so a few grams either way mean little. The other specs were checked on 19 October 2026 against Alpinetrek (La Sportiva Ultra Raptor 3 Mid GTX) and Alpinetrek (La Sportiva Ultra Raptor II Mid GTX). "Not stated" means the source does not mention it, not that the shoe lacks it. List prices are the full price shown by that source, not a sale price; where sources disagree we show none.
