ive had my intuitions since the spring of the year before last, and skied probably 90 days each winter and 25 days each sumer. Theyre still in pretty good condition, i think ill be able to squeeze this one last winter out of them since ill be wearing touring boots instead half the time

Nice full tilts bro!!11!!!1!!


But really you're probably getting roughly the same performance for 1/10th the price...

I got some 6 year old Salomon's. I should have retired them before last winter, but I was sitting in gear limbo all year it seamed. I'll have some new boots by December.

Two year old spk boots. I think the 100's or what ever the fuck model has the rubber toe piece. Liner is dying and buckles are smashed. All of that is replaceable luckily.

Before this year, I had a pair of boots that lasted me 4 years through 2 growth spurts. Needless to say, they beat the shit out of my feet,

I have had a pair of Nordica Dobermanns for 2 years. I've pretty much torn them to shit now though (replaced soles 3 times, coated in scratches). The liners don't fit me anymore, but I may be able to squeeze another season out of them if the next size up still fits in the boot.

I got my boots two years now. Got them end of the 10/11 season.
