Mammut Mamook GTX Boot - Men's

By Ranked #272 - Men's Mountaineering Boots October 8, 2011

Hi, perhaps someone can answer this:
I am hesitating between the Mamook GTX (the red one) and the Mamook Termo (blue, with integrated mini-gaiter).
My questions:
1. If I understand Mammut's web page correctly, the Termo has no GoreTex. Does this mean it is less waterproof? (perhaps in the idea that it's meant to be used in higher terrain)
2. Does the thinner insulation make the GTX version more precise for technical climbing?
I realize these questions are a bit abstract (who has tested both in the real world???) but am asking with hope. I must make a decision soon and buy...
Thank you (and sorry for crossposting - I asked the same question under "Thermo")
