My boots are wayy to big and i can't do anything about it?

alright, so for christmas i got brand new K2 PE's and new head boots. well i tried the boots on and kinda walked in them abit and they felt fine with a bit of room at the end. we got them installed on the ski (which doesn't have a rail). but i didn't get to try them out until a month and a half later when i can't bring any of it back or exchange it. and my boots did not fit at all. i put tissue paper at the ends of them, wore double socks, put all the claps on the tightest they could go and my foot was still shifting around and i thought they were going to fall off.





what do i do?????? :(

You should take them back to the ski shop where you purchased them. Ski boots MUST fit properly or else your performance will be affected and they will not be comfortable. The bootfitter who initially did the sizing is responsible. The ski shop should not give you a hard time at all. Once they size you again and find a boot that fits your foot shape and size, they should deduct the amount of the original boots. If the new boots were less expensive then they will credit you the difference. If they were more expensive then you will need to pay the difference.





Good luck, ski boot fitting is an extensive process, but will worth it in the end! Don't give up!





www.epicski.com is a great resource. Go to the boot fitters forum for additional questions.
Reply:i'm not positive this will answer your question, but i dealt with a loose boot cuff situation which Steiner's Ski Shop in Glenmont resolved. they may be able to do the same thing for the whole inner boot. they applied a 1/4" thick neoprene wrap, in one case around the inside of the boot cuff and in a second case around the exterior of the the inner boot, to fill the excess space. (i also added an additional tongue in each boot to absorb even more space) it's possible that between adding some kind of foot bed and additional neoprene that they may reduce the "slop" in your boot around your foot and any excess in front of the toes may no longer be a problem.
Reply:Why can't you take them back?





Take them back and tell them that you were fitted the wrong way. Tell them you tried them on in the shop, they felt good at first, but now they don't fit correctly and you want the right boot fit.





Judging by the terminology you are using to ask your question, I suspect you don't know a lot about skiing yet, so tell them you are a beginner skiier and that you have no idea what they should feel like...except that you know they are too big.





I have to wonder about the store you purchased those boots at. It sounds like they didn't fit you well.
