  1. I think so they would. I have a pair of Raichle SB400 (?) (renamed Deeluxe) 26.0 boots and they were too big. Then I got a pair of Deeluxe Lemans (SB600?) 25.0 and they were too small... one thing is the shape of your foot... it you foot rounded (middle toe the biggest) or quarter-circled (big toe it the longest) - because the boot shapes are different and you might have to punch out the shell a tiny bit. BTW, I also have very skinny ankles.
  2. Yes, I'll do that. I estimate $15 for shipping. Please paypal $375 to atchang_2001 (at) yahoo.com (make sure to give me your correct shipping address) and I should be able to ship the boots on Monday.
  3. Odd, I never got the last email. Been busy dealing with Hurricane Sandy stuff. I have separated the boots and the heels. The heels are for sale for $60 + shipping. The boots are now $370 + shipping.
  4. Last I checked, Step Ins were super popular. Is it that everyone has migrated to Fintec Step-ins? I'll think about parting it out this weekend (it's a pain to take apart).
  5. Update: Price lowered yet again :) (let me know if you think my prices are too high)
  6. I am willing to sell just the shintronics, but I believe they are either size Medium or one-size-fit-all. Are you still interested in buying them? $40 + shipping.
  7. Probably was caught in your spam folder. I just sent them again and will post them here as well.
  8. Hi, just checking to see if you received the photos? I sent them in a Sept 27th email entitled ("Hardboots"). Thanks.
  9. Yes, the boots will work with bindings that don't support intec heels as well (or you can remove them and put in the original pads which I will include with the boots). I understand the tendency as a parent with a growing child to buy gear slightly larger for them to grow into, but this is a major no-no for hardboots... it's going to make your son miserable with poor boot performance and potentially crippling boot pain and injury - at that point why bother even buying a hardboot. A bootfitter can actually stretch out the toe area of the boot to accomodate minor growth. Hope that helps.
  10. Hi, I am actually having a hard time getting a reasonable shipping cost to Methven, NZ. FedEx.com quoted $300?!?! for air shipping (I don't see any options for boat). US Postal Services suggests TWO large international flat rate boxes for 2 x $60 = $120. I've never shipped to NZ before, but do these sound like normal rates for you?
  11. Hi, are you still interested in the boots?

  12. Yes, if Midwestrider passes on the boots. I will ship to Australia/NZ... so long as your pay for the shipping in addition to the price of the boots (I can get an estimate beforehand).
  13. Yes, the boots run true to size. That's why hardboots use the Mondo sizing system - the number used is exactly the length of the inside of the boot in centimeters (Mondo 25.5 is 25.5 centimeters).The BTS (Boot Tuning System) spring allow you to fine tune the flex of the boot and unquestionably makes the boot easier to ride. Here is a link with more information (scroll down half the page). Here is the link to the item on the Bomberonline store. You can also easily remove it (just need a screwdriver). BTW... I found an extra set of toe/heel pads for the boots as well as insert bolts. I will include them for free. PS. If you son has extremely skin/bony shins like I do, you can also get him some Shintronic shinpads to protect his shins from getting bruised. I have a pair that I bought $60 that I can throw in for $30 more.
  14. Hi, you were asking about my boots for sale.

    http://www.bomberonline.com/VBulletin/showthread.php?37804-Head-Stratos-Pro-Mondo-25-5-with-Liners-Intec-Heels-Booster-Strap-and-BTS-installed&p=380598&posted=1#post380598

    A mondo size 25.5 is equivalent to a US mens 7.5 boot size. I have narrow/flat feet myself. So I think these boots would be good for your son. I would personally also get him custom footbeds as well (I really like Sole Supports, but Superfeet Corks are decent if made by a skilled bootfitter).

    I checked and it would be a little over $30 to ship to Chicago... so $510 total. I

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

  15. I have narrow/flat feet as well and my feet vary between size 7.5 and 8 depending on the brand. So yea I think these boot could work very well for your son. If he has flat feet I would recommend a custom footbed like Sole Supports or Superfeet Cork (sold separate from these boots of course).
  16. Update: I will sell the heels separately for $60 + shipping. Price for boot (standard heel) is $370 + shipping. Hi, I'm selling a part of excellent condition (used maybe six days total) Head Stratos Pro that have been decently modified for optimal riding. Most notably I've install a set of BTS springs (yellow springs) on the boots as well have cut away some of the internal plastic to make it flex much more naturally (there was a post by some of the European EC carvers on how to do it on the main forum a couple of years ago). The boots also come with the original thermofit liners never baked (I also have a pair of Intuition foam liners... but I doubt they will fit your feet as they are custom to my feet). Also come with Intec heels install and a Booster strap on top. Buying all of these separately would cost you around $750 and a few hours of shop time to drill/cut/modify boots. I'm asking for $430 + plus shipping (no shipping if you pick it up SF Bay Area or North Lake Tahoe). I can provide more photos if you want to see a particular area in more detail. Thanks
  17. Following up... got my refund. Everything is cool for me and John Gilmour. Sorry for reviving a long dormant thread, but I've been carving on softboots and haven't been frequenting this forum recently.
