Further to my earlier post on the Alpina 1550's and pinched feet. I've been looking for possible alternatives that might accommodate my wide feet better.
REI has the Rossignol X7 Backcountry ski boot on sale and one if the features is a thermo-moldable foam lining.
When I emailed Rossignol they said "The retailer uses a heat gun, you then wear the boots for 5-7 minutes and they are done." When I talked to the guy at an REI he said "Nope. We've never thermo formed any backcountry boots, don't do it."
So, anyone have any experience with this boot?
Thanks,
Bob
