loupa5 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I having trouble with my foot hurting. I purchased a used pair of Raichle AF600TS size US10 and Mondo size 28. I wear a size US10 in regular boots and yes, I....now know you can't go by that. With that said, at first when I put the boots on they felt good. But after a few runs on the mountain my feet started to hurt. Through reading on Bomber I have discovered that the boots are to big for me. Turns out my Mondo size is 26.5 so I did the finger test with my boots. U know slipping your foot in the shell and counting how many fingers you can fit behind your heel. I counted three finger which means the boot is not fitted....for me little feet. I tooked the advice from a fellow carver I met and tried placing some arch supports under my footsies to help elevate my foot. It did not help my situation but thanks for the support dude........he's a bomber member to. Anyway my question equates to this, is there hope for me or do I bite the bullet and buy another pair that fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.oldsnowboards.com Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Use Bomber's suggested boot measuring methods. Yes, unless you can make your feet larger? You will need to get a boot that is sized properly. Good news, you are among many here who have lived through this and come out happy carvers. Get er done sooner than later. WELCOME TO BOMBER!!! You will hopefully find someone to pick up your bigger boots here and not loose to much $$$$$$ , having bought them used you will not be out much. Congrats on acutally filling in your CP details PRIOR to posting for the first time. I for one am impressed already. Well done!! Get with riders in your area , they can help get you up and running (carving fast) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
