Get them off TD? I was considering ordering some. I tried them on today at work when I had some time to myself and they were reallll comfy. So if your looking for a comfortable boot for your average foot then you'll be content I guess ha. I have a lower profile/narrow foot and I really had to crank down all the buckles as far as a I could to get the boot tight enough and i still felt like I had some wiggle room. Plus there was like an inch or two space at my calf. But if you have an average-wider foot the boots will work out for ya.

I've heard they have a very consistent flex pattern, which is obviously a plus.

I tried some on yesterday before i bought my spks. They are wide in the front, and they are pretty comfortable, but i have skinny feet so they didnt fit me very well. They dont come up as high on your leg as some others do but they are pretty decent boots.

i hope you bought them pretty tight because mine packed out after 20 or so days to the point where i had to buckle them really tight to get response out of them. i can't get enough of them for park and being an instructor, but they're a little soft for aggressive tight turns

Are you trying to say that you think they are wide compared to SPKs?  That means they are enormous.

Haha, my Agent 80s aren't as wide as SPKs haha.

I liked mine a lot.  I recommend buying a Super Feet footbed though, it's a great $30 investment.  I'm planning on adding the Booster Straps too.  I did get a little bit of shinbang, but I got it all solved pretty quickly.  They definitely pack out a lot though.  Super comfy boot and a really good price.  They work fine all over for me because I am quite light too (125lbs.).  They are a solid boot though, I don't see many kids with them on here.  I see Full Tilts and SPKs and that's about it, but looking cool is what makes you a good skier right?  If they fit you at the shop well, then they will definitely fit you well.
