Not at stiff as I'd hoped By ryguy79 from Colorado Springs, CO on 11/06/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Look Cool, Warm Cons: Lacks Adjustability, Too Much Flex Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels full size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Coming from Rossi Course X boots, these didn't feel nearly as stiff as I'm used to. The first day that I skied them I felt like I was completely overpowering the boots, but after I got used to them they skied well. The boots are pretty warm and comfortable for alpine boots. They did seem to fit bigger than I expected. I originally ordered them in 27.5 as this was the same size as my previous Rossi boots, but they felt huge. I returned them for a pair in 26.5 and they fit well.

They added greatly to my ski control and kept my feet nice and warm.
By fatasianskier from TN on 02/26/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Quality Construction Cons: Lacks Adjustability, Poor Fit Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These boots lack a lot of adjustability. It is not an easily adjustable boot either. They are very stiff. The boot is pretty comfortable to wear. It is a lower end boot though but you get what you pay for. I'm happy.
Easy entry and a good fit By Marty from South East Michigan on 02/24/2009 Pros: Adjustability, Comfortable, Quality Construction, Warm Best Uses: All Mountain, Downhill Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: As a Ski Patroller at two locations I spend a lot of time in my boots and this boot seems to be the best so far.
By breck skier from Colorado Springs, Colorado. on 02/10/2009 Pros: Adjustability, Look Cool Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels full size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I've had 2 previous pairs of Rossignol boots, both in 27.5. When I received these boots and tried them on they felt significantly larger than my other Rossis in the same size. With my usual ski socks on I couldn't get a tight fit around my foot even with the boots buckled as tightly as possible. I had to return the boots.
High Instep Feet Might Be A Problem By Jox from Colorado on 01/22/2009 Pros: Adjustability, Comfortable, Look Cool, Quality Construction, Warm Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels half size too small Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Very stylish and comfortable except for the right foot boot. It is difficult to slide your foot into due to the stiffiness. Left boot is ok and I'm hopeful the right boot will eventually loosen up. Once foot is inside, it is ok and not too tight.
By Powder Hound from Portland, Or. on 01/14/2009 Pros: Adjustability, Comfortable, Quality Construction, Warm Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Best boots I've ever owned. Easy to adjust stiffness for bumps and powder. Thermo-mold makes boots fit like a glove. If wide feet order half size up and crank down ankle buckles. Minimum heel lift when adjusted/tightened properly.
By Photofolio from Paris, France on 12/16/2008 Pros: Adjustability, Comfortable, Look Cool, Quality Construction Best Uses: Downhill, Racing Describe Yourself: Advanced Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Just to answer to Bing about "adjustement".
I've just bought theses boots today and the thermal fit has been done in the shop using a machine which blows hot air inside the boot during 15 min. Then you put the boots on during 10 min and that's it ! I assume you can do this at home with a hairdryer too, but boot by boot ;)
All I can say for now is that they are really comfortable but I admit I didn't go skiing with them yet. Have to wait for february ;)
By Bing from Green Lane, PA on 11/24/2008 Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I mostly have no problem with boot fits. This boot fit well length wise but was narrow. I never even got to ski it. Size 8 1/2 US. The boot was to have a thermal fit as in heat, no intructions on how to do that. No adjustment other than forward flex. I have 12 year old Tecnica TNS that fit better. My foot felt like it was in a vise at the lowest buckle. Dissapointing. Cool looking Bandit colors Orange black white. I have never tried a Rossi boot before but if this is anything like their other boots I will not buy them. Stick to smoking skis. Think Snow! It could be just my foot or a bad mold!
