Posted: Jul 09, 2007 8:51 pm Post subject: closed toe boot question |
|
|
| I have the 05 byerly boot the have been fairly comfy but after a long run they feel too tight on mf lower foot. I tried my friends closed murrys and at first I felt weird because m foof could move around but the I liked it m question is how much room should you have in a closed toe boot is it normal to have some room? |

| You shouldn't have very much, because you don't want your foot sliding around. |

hyperlyte doesnt have a real closed toe boot so I wouldnt base my opinion on that check out the Liquid force, Ronix and Slingshot boots to get a feel for a real closed toe boot, and you dont want any slop at all they should feel like snowboard boots on _________________ TEAM PIRATE, AAAARRRGGGHHH YOU READY?

HHI Dave, we know you like showing off the PS3 you got on ebay but how does that illustrate how much room he should/shouldn't have?
And you shouldn't have any room, and if you do, very little room, like Kento911 said, it should feel like a snowboard boot. _________________ It won't be easy, but when I get there it will be one of the most satisfying journeys of my life. |

the hype closed toes are open toe boots with a thin layer of rubber stretched over the end they arent actually constructed as closed toe so you lose almost all the advantage of a real closed toe boot _________________ TEAM PIRATE, AAAARRRGGGHHH YOU READY?

| hyperlite has a very thin toe piece and had rumors of the material ripping especially the 06 3ds and murrays. liquid force ronix and slingshot are all built better and thicker material and like someone said, they are supposed to feel like snowboard boots, pretty tight around the top and sides of the foot and i would recomend tightness in the toes too. |
