onenerdykidRe: BSL - Just because a boot says "325mm" doesn't mean it's actually 325mm. There is nothing in the Alpine Norm ISO 5355 about the actual sole length of the boot corresponding to the stated measurement. The only thing in the norm is that a pair of boots cannot deviate by more than 1mm from each other. So a sole can say "325mm" but actually measure "329mm" and be legit.
So, just because one boot says "326mm" and another says "325mm", it is not necessarily the case that the boots are only 1mm different. Could be that, could be way more.
DlonettiHmm good to know. I was just going off info from evo
onenerdykidYou'll always need to put the boot in the binding and check forward pressure. That's the only way to know.
