These boots felt so soft when i tried them on at the store. At first I couldn't figure out how to set them how i like..but now wow they're finally broken in..then the liner finally molded to the shape of my feet and it feels great! so much flex..I do everything in these. Def great for butters and jibbing. No pinch at all and they feel like shoes lol. They strap in fast and it's totally easy to re-adjust them to get the right feel when your on the slopes quick!
