I would heed the warning that the manufacturer gives regarding double wall mugs, "Please note that any double wall cup should not be used over direct heat." You cannot always use titanium over a stove or fire. If it's single walled go ahead, but never with double walled vessels. Best case scenario the cup will bulge. Worst case it'll explode from the pressure.

You can always use titanium over a backpacking stove though it looks as though the handle will probably get hot. However, If by direct heat you mean a camp fire then I would say try not to use it. I have a lot of titanium cookware and though it will always hold up over a fire it WILL warp due to the differences in temperature on the bottom of the cup. If your just purchasing it for a light weight cup to beat up, go for it; its not going to break. Anyways, love snow peak and wish you the best of luck!
