hmm 120°C that's hot 8O , aren't you burning your feet :)
Ive got also the black thermoliners but I think ill check first for a bootfitter.

I have bought the track 225, on the back of the shell you have a clip that you can pull down so the articulation can move. You als got a round button under that clip that you can turn 45°. wy this serves?

thx

Tohass and the rest,

why did you decide to buy the Deelxe 325 an not the 700? are they better for EC? or because of price?

Rowies, i do not burning my feet because i wear a sock and heat exchange rate of liner very low.

Asking bootfitter is a best what you can do actually and i adviced you to do that, but do not ask him a questions if he will tell you different things than me...he is a professional who get money for his job and taking a responsibility to provide you comfortable boot :-) if he fails, you can get your money back - if you listem me, you can just say in this forum that starikashka is bullshitting us explaining his experience :-) choise is always yours.

Goldfinger007, 3 reasons:
1. I have heard that the 700 is a little bit wider and I'm afraid the 700 will become too wide for me.
2. The 700 is more stiff and I will use the boots together with a "normal" snowboard so maybe I should choose the 225 instead :)
3. Price.

my feet are 27,0 and 26,9 but track 700 27,0 is really too short for me. I'll buy 27,5 only because the external boot's size are the same for 25,0-27,5 and 28,0 - ..., but probably 28,0 is the right size

If it's the same for track 325 i think that right size for you is 29,0 if you use socks or 28,5 if you don't.

I would say that most feets should take max size as mondo, no way larger.
Only if you have some special shaped ffets then perhaps, but only after having session with bootfitter.
Or then you end up ordering too big boots and order next ones with smaller size as it has happened most of us :wink:

First external boot size is not the same for 25-27.5 --> it is only the shaft that changes only every second FULL Mondo Size, the boot lower changes on every FULL Mondo size (so 27 and 27.5 have exactly the same shell and all parts the same. 26.5 vs 27 would have a different lower - which is the main factor concerning size - however feature the same shaft)


See a bootfitter - once the liner wears in, it'll bee too big. Especially on the 700 (which is at least half a size bigger than the 325 for the same indicated Mondo size).

On the 325 or 225 if you have a very wide forefoot, you might have problems fitting in at the proper size because it is so tight, going 1-2 sizes bigger is definitely not the right solution however (which would be to contact a bootfitter to create you custom liners so you fit in - or if you're like me taking a pair of scissors and solving the problem by removing some material from the liner)

I have never seen someone complaining here on the forum about discovering after first use, that his boots are too small, many, many however that after some days boots got too big.
