So now that I have my boards, I've been boot shopping.
I saw these at my ski shop, and I tried them on:
http://www.salomon.com/caus/?#/ski/boots/boots/kreation
I guess what drew me to them was how they looked (I've always disliked the look of traditional ski boots, and these are a lot different).
Does anyone have an opinion on them based on those specs? (Salomon Kreation in case the link doesn't work.)
Also, the guy at the store seemed a little strange. He insisted that my toes should touch the end of the boots, and even if it was a bit painful (which it was), the boot liners would stretch out over time. However, I know when I've rented boots, they were never that uncomfortable! These just felt extremely cramped and my feet were sore when I got them off. I didn't buy them, and instead figured I'd float around these forums before making a final decision.
Does anyone have any advice on choosing a good boot? I really don't want to spend a lot....
