Hi, I asked You about two weeks ago about the sizes, the outer shell of the northwave boots fits. It was because I was offered a pair of them in size 40, but my feet are rather41... Now I bought them and they are: SIZE 42!!! And they do fit really perfectly. Now I am a proud owner of northwave point 900 boots, too! I can't expect, testing them!!

Hope, we will meet one day on a perfect slope ;)))

Last tip> many shops now offer boot adaptation ( they heat the shell and apply pressures on different points). My point 900 where hurting one ankle and also where a bit too short, i have had them gain almost 1/4 of mondo in lenght, and got some room at ankle: now they don't hurt at all.. The shell of the northwave is very stiff compare to others, so it is important to have no hurtiong points in them...
