Need help with sizing for 32 boots tried on a pair before xmas liked the fit but didn't have enough cash to get them...Problem is now i've seen them in a sale online and can finally afford them I can't remember which size the shop gave me to try im usually a 6 but some of my board boots have been 6.5 does anyone know if 32 are usually normal shoe size or are they on the small side?????
I would go to the shop an try them again but im stuck in the back of beyond due to work for the next few weeks and its a 60 mile trip to nearest board shop that sells them to try them!
Any help please!!!!  |

| Well i bought my wife some size 6 32s and she a size 6 in normal shoes, she says they a bit tight but i think the inners just need moulding as im a 7 and got my feet in them( a little tight for me) id say go for a 6.5 as you could just wear thicker socks or another pair if they not tight enough. |

| Hmm, I disagree. I'm a size 5/6 normal shoes and my 32s are a size 5 and are more than big enough, I certainly wouldn't say they come up small. I needed a 5.5 in Burton and Vans boots. |

| i am uk8 and i bought us10 (uk7.5) and they are good. they mould like there's no tomorrow so make sure they arent a little too big as you could end up moulding the hell out of them. They are also really wide boots so if u got thin feet (like me) then definatly go for a slightly smaller size. |

I measure a 9 and i'm in an 8.5 Burton SL8 boot, YOU NEED TO TRY THEM ON! 
Most people wear at least a size bigger shoe than what they measure, Had loads of people say they are 11/12 and measure an 8/8.5 you need the size boot that you measure or slightly smaller IMO but i'm an experienced rider so I want a performance fit. Just try not to go too big because a loose boot sucks more than tight ones. |

I'm a size 8 for normal shoes and my 32 304s are also a UK8.
My mate bought some prospects last week and he is also the same size in shoe and 32 boot. |

I have wide toes, narrow heal and high instep
I wear half a size smaller in 32s than normal shoes but same size as my old northwaves were
I rarely feal the ends with my toes but had to add loads of insoles to stop heal lift (3 so far!!) but also to raise my calf out of the top of the boot some, don't think they shortened the leg height on proprotion for tiny sizes
all that said i love em and only problem i have is walking down hill coz there is so much forward lean built in to the boot, for ridin their great

thats because saloman made really thin boots and you need a bigger size if you have medium/wide feet. Do you guys know nothing ?????

Got my new 32s at last!!! Was gonna get the Prions but ended up bankrupting myself and buying the lashed ones!! Now living on toast till Friday (don't think the budget will stretch to beans!!)Who cares it was worth it!!
Next question is do I really need to get them heat moulded?
I've been wearing them round the house for a couple of hours and so far they feel ok.I've got the really tight new boots feeling but no really bad pressure points or discomfort so far! |

I've got the lashed and I didn't bother with the heat moulding cause they feel just fine with out doing it. Think mine have moulded to shape same as a non heat moulded liner.
And yep great boots totally worth going without food for |
