I usually wear a 26 or 26.5 ski boot w/ soft flex for landing hard, but im thinking about getting the SPK. should i really go down to a 25.5? do they really break in that much?

naw, size down on spks. if you ski hard, they'll stretch. if they don't take em in and have the toe box blown out a lil bit.

boots can not fit in other areas too that are much harder to fix. your best bet is shell fit for a performance fit. IE a finger width or less between your heel and the rear of the boot (yours toes should be touching the end of the toe box while doing this.
