No charges for custom builds after the first pair. Never experienced a sprain, blister, or rolled an ankle since I started wearing those.

I had a now distant buddy who would consistently bring out his boots on opening day. Days 2 and 3 would find him in camp nursing blisters, and troops having to take care of his pack outs there after. The advice to not tickle what works as the critical time nears is quite sound.

If one finds something that works, get a lifetime supply.

Good luck up there. I'll be steel heading on opening day.


True words.

I think I'll go in on Thursday. That way I can spend Friday with my foot in that icy spring on the side of the hill if need be before the season opens on Saturday.

The real problem is, of course, if I kill one. smile


The CENTER will hold.
