No way. 9 oz/shoe in smaller sizes is more like it.
A good shoe in any case: http://toesalad.com/reviews/run-climb-scramble-hike-testing-patagonia-rover/
From the weight listed on the REI site, I think the Rovers are about 9 oz per SHOE, so about average for trail runner-type footwear.
Thanks for the link – wasn't aware of that site. Another in a long list of sites to distract me!!
Did seem freakishly light to me, oh well.
From the link you posted: "The $125 Patagonia Rover is light — just shy of 9oz. per shoe …" Just finished MYOGing some fording shoes that total 9 oz, so am relieved to see that it wasn't a waster of time. Cheers.
