150 Pairs of Mamook GTX take the equivalent of three weeks’ holi-
day in production.
If you take all the individual components of a pair of Mamook
GTX and lay them out, they stretch 12.4 meters. Multiply that by
all the Mamook sales since Mammut first started manufacturing
footwear (spring 2009) and you get 124 kilometers, equivalent to
the distance between Berne and Zurich.
A Mamook GTX boot is made up of 103 individual parts.
Multiply this by all the Mamook sales since Mammut first started
manufacturing footwear (spring 2009), and you could give every in-
habitant of Geneva a part (= 206,000 individual parts).
The materials used to make a Mamook GTX have a total surface
area of 0.6213 square meters, and therefore 1.2426 square meters
a pair. If you multiply this figure by the number of Mamook boots
manufactured up to summer 2012, the total surface area would be
12,426 square meters, equivalent to two football fields.
