What do you mean by that? 

 

How well did these fit you? Where did it feel big/small? I got super skinny heels. Why are you selling them? I'm interested

Finger width is a hardboot/skiboot measurement acquired by putting one's foot in a shell without a liner and moving it as far forward as possible in the shell. How many fingers you can place behind the heel is a representation of fit.  Step 2 here talks about it in liner volume- https://intuitionliners.com/choosing-a-liner-model/

I personally believe you aren't in the correct shell if you can get 2+ fingers behind your heel... that's just my opinion.

Hmm........seems pretty subjective to me..............depends on boot brand and desired function.   Maybe ya want 2+ finger width specifically when using UPZ's....but I'd be swimming in any of my Track boots with that much room.

I like a looser fit for pow, aka: Track 325's  and  performance fit for hard charging carving, aka: Track 425's  and "Performance fit" is what works best for you, your foot and the intended riding.............

Selling because I have a new pair of upz rc11 boots.  I also have a narrow heel. They fit great with Palu liners. Not very well with stock liners. The stock liners come with pads that allow you to adjust the fit.

I also have a narrow heel. They fit great with Palau liners. Could not get a good fit with stock liners. Selling because I have a new pair of UPZ rc11 boots.

@arneburner, sorry just out of curiosity, why did you get a pair of RC11 when you have the RC10? Just curious as an RC10 owner.

Better Buckles, and swing away tongue for easier entry and exit. The 11's are a little stiffer due to the carbon upper cuff. don't need to tighten the forward spring. They also seem a little lighter. Also preferred the blue to the bright green.
