Great looking boot but wide and short
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
I bought these for my daughter who has a wide foot. I bought the boot in a size that was a half size larger than she normally wears because I read the reviews saying they ran small. Even sizing up, her toe was touching the end of the boot. They are great looking boots and the tightening mechanisms looked like they would work well. They have the next size up but I'm hesitant to take the chance and have to spend another $7 shipping them back.
Didn't fit - Not Snug Enough and Stiff
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
I am returning after trying on as they had too much movement in the heel. Better for a wider foot - I have very narrow - 23.5 mondo. Definitely a great boot. Stiffer than what I was looking for - I had tried on the Thirty Two Lashed Boa (dual zone) which had a fantastic heel grab and overall fit. I currently own old Salomon boots and was hoping the fit would be the same. Please not this boot does allow heat mold and most heel movement can be adjusted in a shop with a boot fitter BUT that Thirty Two fit so well so...
Run short and wide
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I originally ordered these in an 8.5 which is my street shoe size and the size I've been wearing in Burton boots for the last 15 years. They were so short that my toes curled under at the top, so I exchanged them for a 9. The 9 was the right length, but my heel was swimming in them. I took them out on the hill for about 3 runs, they felt pretty stiff (a good thing) and seemed like they would be very responsive if they fit my foot. Unfortunately, I don't think Salomons are a good fit for my foot, which used to be slightly narrow, but have widened a little across the ball (possibly from many years of snowboarding). If you have a slightly wider foot, these would be a really great boot.
