Slim Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 First time I've seen Oxygen hardboots. Have you used 'em? How do they compare with the other hard boots that are out there? Thanks for any additional info... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldrider Posted November 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 The boots, which I purchased online, don't fit so I haven't tried them on snow. I wish they did fit, they are great boots. The construction and features compare favorably to the other high-end four buckle boots out there (I currently ride Deeluxe Indys and rode Burton's high end product for many years). For the buckles alone (beefy and smooth-working--light years better than the flimsy Indy buckles), I wish my feet were a bit bigger. <img src="http://tinypic.com/mt11z"> Probably get more dates, too.

csmith Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 I have some 29 shells. Same story, bought them online, showed up with no liners and they're too big for me. cas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 I'm interested in the boots. What size is a 30.5? I have size 12 us feet. Would you say the fit is wide or narrow? How long have you had them for sale? What's the best deal do ya figger? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldrider Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 <a href="http://www.telemarkski.com/html/how_AT_size_boot.html" target="http://www.telemarkski.com/html/how_AT_size_boot.html">Here's</a> a boot sizing conversion chart. I'm afraid I can't say exactly if they tend to fit wide or narrow feet better; they will accomodate my slightly wide forefoot without any pinching or squeezing, but then again they are a full size too big for me. <p></p><img src="http://tinypic.com/oekad" alt="" border="0"><p></p>Hope you're finding DEEP snow!<br> COLDrider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 What US shoe size do you typically wear? I'm just trying to avoid what happened to you with no re-course of return or exchange. Looking at the size chart they look close... I will probably go to a local ski shop and see if they have that size I can try. Are they thermomoldable liners? Does $175.00 make it happen? I havent bought anything online before how would you want to get paid? Where are you located? Thanks for your time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldrider Posted November 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 My US shoe size is Men's 11. The Proton has a great liner, well-made, warm, and sturdy, but it is not thermomoldable. As you know, you can pick up an OEM T-flex if thermos are your preference. If it's the correct shell size, it should fit, but you may still want to work with a skilled bootfitter to get a custom fit to achieve the highest levels of performance. And, if your size 12 feet still do not fit in the boot. you can return 'em and pay only the shipping. But I think they'll fit. $175 US plus shipping from Vail, Colorado will make it happen. I'm sure you'll find them to be excellent boots and for a great price. Look forward to many seasons of hard-chargin' riding in them! If you are interested, we can work out payment through Paypal or money order. Paypal is an easy and secure way to make cash payments over the web. I've never had any problems using it for buying or selling items online. Let me know, and best wishes for deep powder! <img src="http://tinypic.com/olf5s"> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 I'm in. My email address is kurt@bowcycle.com Give me your mailing address and I'll get you a certified cheque. I work at a bike shop in Calgary and I'm sure we have an account. I'll get you to send the boots COD after you recieve my cheque. I am stoked! talk to you soon. Regards.
