Guest Zman Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 Ok, getting some new lemans to try out this season and I would greatly appreciate some advice as to sizing. My feet measure 27.5 and the best fitting boots I own are Burton Reactors that are 27.5 (shell reads 27 - 28.5). I also have Burton Fire's that are 27.0 (shell is 25.5 to 27.0) and they are a bit too tight. So do I go for the 27 or 28 Lemans? do they run big or small? thanks again everyone!

You can always strech the boot a half size out with a good bootfitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike T Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 I would guess 27. With Thermoflex liners, you always round down. Actually... my feet measure somewhere between 26.5 and 27 (left slightly larger) and I use a 25 with Thermo liners and it;'s a nice snug but comfy fit.

bschurman Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 Since you measure 27.5 the Thermoflex liner, when molded, will give you a nice fit with the 27. The 27 boot is supposed to fit a 27.0 to 27.9 cm foot. Be sure to get insoles with those boots as well. The Superfeet trim-to-fit insoles are a good start. But if you want to go a step further you can get custom fit othodics. They are very much worth it. ->Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zman Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 thanks again everyone, just ordered the 27's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zcarver Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 I just got my 27 last week. They should be fine for you too. Even without baking the liners I was able to fit inside the boots fine. Be sure to do the 2 fingers rule before baking the liners when you do the shell test. ;) Cheers AZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bordy Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 Zman, If you are parting with your fires let me know we have a team rider looking for a size 26.5 27.0 shells, Burtons are strange I am quessing the sole length based on your comments of fit and the cuff size range, The upper cuff is made to fit the 25-27 lower that why it reads as such. Is there a US size anywhere on the bladder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zman Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Cool. I'll let you know how these work out. The fire's say 27.0 on the bladder. Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
