Quick Help! (04-05 1080 Boots)

[Gleason19d]

Here is the deal. I bought 26.5 04-05 1080 boots. I am currently in iraq so have no way to make sure they fit, I just talked to my buddy who roughly has the same size feet as mine and he says he can't even put his feet in them. He dosen't know alot about skiing and I dought he has ever had his foot in a ski boot before, so is he just doing something wrong or is the boot the wrong size. I wear a 8.5 - 9 shoe. Thanks guys

I wear a size 10.5-11 shoe and fit into a 27.5 ski boot, you should be fine

Those should fit you good if anything they would be big. I wear a 10 and I am getting these same boots in a 27... when I can find some

so is my buddy doing something wrong?

 

[heavymetalwinner]

he probably didnt unbuckle them. that makes them fucken hard to get on.

 

[Gleason19d]

Nope, just talked to him again and he says it's a no go. Buckles undone and everything, I don't know whats going on.

those boots fit huge

i wear a size 11 shoe and i got a pair of 9.5s

 

[YaY4skiing]

tell him to check the size maybe they sent a small size??

 

[wrenegade]

often foot width can have major impact on the fit of the boot. with salomon, a narrow/midwidth boot, a wider foot is going to have a hard time getting in

also, i have 03.04 1080 promodels in a 26.5 and i wear size 10-11 shoes. perfect fit.
