By Ranked #372 - Men's Ski Boots February 12, 2009

I have a pair of Salomon Xwave 9 boots that I bought a number of years ago after renting them. The shop engraved "11.5" in the back. The sole length is 335 mm. Otherwise, I can't find a size on the boot. I am an expert/advanced skier, 6'1, 180 lbs, 55 years old.Questions:Are these Salomon size 11.5?Would you recommend the Impact 10 or Falcon 10 (or some other boot)?What size?

I wear an 11 1/2 or 12 street shoe. I bought these first in 29.5. The shell was way too big. 3+ fingers behind my heel. switche to the 28/28.5 shell with a 28.5 liner. They fit great. Put some heat moldable insoles in and these boots rip. I've been skiing for almost 40 years. These are by far the most comfortable boots I've owned. Stiff and responsive. They let me put everything into the ski almost instintively. $299.00 for these boots is a steal.

The 335 mm bootsole would be a 29.0/29.5 shell. roughly size 11.5 or 12 street shoe.I think the Falcon is a more direct descendant of the X-wave, but I bet the Impact would work well for you too. Especially at $299.
