Hey! I need some snowboarders opinion's. Should I buy the Burton Ion Boots in Brown in a 1/2 size smaller than I usually buy? It might be fine. I find that in my current Burton's, I slide around a lot inside...now that they are broken in.
**** make that snowboarders' opinions
bump
Were you able to try them on? did you try them on with big/multiple pairs of socks? if you can't try them on, i would go w/ my regular size. you can always put more socks on once they are broken in but who wants tortured feet for the first couple of seasons?
the problem is, my reg. size is NOT available
I went with a size smaller when I got my boots last year and it was snug at first but after riding all day in them, it got very uncomfortable... I had to go and get my size. After I did that, it felt oh so much better... so I would say, dont go smaller, because it may not break in and your feet will kill you when you ride....
with most snowboarding boots my feet kill me anyway. I can't go bigger... I can't try these on, either...
are you finding what you need??
yes! Everything is perfect, but the boots are 1/2 a size smaller than my last burton boots. Then again, maybe they're perfect. I used to wear a whole size smaller boots before I went to burton. I'll just go for it, and sell it if they're too tight.
GINA RULES, got it!? Anyone who's got a problem with that, best see me first.
Ive seen you...
GINA DOESNT RULE!!!!
lol, wanna fight?!
HEYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
*THANKS TODD!!!!!
I find that anytime i buy boots i buy a LITTLE smaller then my size... i like everything to be tight.
Hahaha - my boots are little boys' because they're cheaper and my feet are small. I always like more space cuz you can wear thicker socks, but you can't chop off your toes (cinderella style).
So I'm happy. I'm all geared up! FINALLY. my board, boots, and pants are all around 6 years old.
This is what I got:
