Comments:
I normally wear a 7 1/2 or 8 shoe. I bought an 8 and it fits perfect with room enough for my winter athletic insoles and a medium heavy cushion ski sock. The toe box is rounded and roomy enough for my toes to stay warm. The boots are solid and provide enough stability and support for deeper snow, although I would use gaiters to keep the snow from getting in around the ankles.The boots are flexible enough to get a good kick on the straight away and I can use them to help with edge on turns. The boots felt best after wearing them a few hours and they softened up some after use. I would like them to be a bit softer yet. I use them on hilly and flat groomed and non-groomed park and backcountry trails, or just out the back door.

Bends at the Wrong Place
By Road RashVerified Reviewer from Albuquerque on 01/29/2009
Pros:
Quality Construction
Describe Yourself:
Advanced
Sizing:
Feels half size too big
Width:
Feels true to width
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
This is an extremely well-made boot, except that it bent too far back on my foot for comfortable telemark turns and pinches. Perhaps if you size it smaller, the bend would be in a better place (i.e. more where your foot bends)-- beware.
