Hi all
Just after a bit of help. Can anyone tell me the sole length of a pair of Salomon Evolution 7 boots (UK shoe size 10.5/11) please? Just bought some new skis and don't have access to my boots to get the measurement to get the bindings mounted.

BruceW, 328mm should be, uk sizes don't help, Mondo size would help to be sure!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

BruceW,
I wouldn't know if this is such a simpe assumption (10.5 = 325 or whatever, all models, for example) and on that basis I wouldn't get my bindings mounted unless I was sure.
Hopefully one of the boot specialists might have a definitive answer

BruceW, a 29 & 29.5 share the same sole length - the .5 version has a bit more volume, usually obtained by using a slightly thinner liner in the same shell.

unless of course you are dealing with a pair of Atomic B tech boots then 28.5 and 29 are the same size ....29.5 and 30 etc etc

SMALLZOOKEEPER, unless they have changed for the comming season, the B tech boots size split is a half size early
which is a perfectly good reason only to stock them in the whole size ie 26, 27, 28 etc etc
then it doesn't affect things, but i can assure you 28,5 in that boot is the same length as a 29

So can anyone tell me what the sole length would be for a mondo size of 29/29.5 or is it just too dependent on the manufacturer/model to say?

You know it makes sense.
|
BruceW, Even within a manufactuers range of models the sole length will vary from model to model. depending which last they have used.
For Salomon a MP of 29/29.5 will give you sole lengths of 335, 336, 337 339 depending which boot (XWave, Falcon, SPK, Symbio! etc.)

BruceW, I had the same thing with my Lange boots yesterday and after an hour of looking for my receipts etc. found that the mm size was stamped on the side  perhaps it is moulded somewhere on your salomons?

Thanks SZK, I'll give them this info and hope it works - it's only EUR8 extra so if it's wrong I assume (after reading another thread) that I can get the bindings repositioned and have the old holes filled. They're brand new Rossignol skis so it should be okay.
