hey i was looking to buy some lange crl fr80s. If i go into my local sporting goods store and test on some of the 06 models would it be safe to say that they would fit the same as the 04/05 model? I found them pretty cheap online. Thanks

also right now i wear a size 10 shoe and have atomic race boots which are size 28-30.5 and they hurt really bad. Is it because its a race boot or is it because my feet or gigantor?

Size 28-30 is a pretty big gap. If you are using race boots you will find the 80's way soft. Look into the fr 100 or 120. Good luck.

i bought the racing boots not knowing about them. I am 90% park and i've found them to be extremely uncomfortable. What exactly do the numbers 80 and 100 designate on the boot? thanks

dont get lange if you dont want an uncomfortable boot. i would for sure go with technica or solomon.

The new lange's have a different liner people. Doesn't anyone on NS actually work in the industy? Same shell different liner, get measured for cm and US on the same brannich if they have the Lange issued one. Don't even buy Lange's if your foot is at all wide though.

an easy way to remeber roughly what boot sizes are is what you learnt in grade 2...addition!
*roughly*
25=7
26=8
27=9
28=10
29=11 and then around this point everything starts getting wonky
