Re: Ultralight ntn boots... path forward

Are these the boots that showed up on Facebook with Telemarkdown's logo on them? If they are the real deal I would be really excited, However, there is a thread on Earn Your Turns/Back Country Talk Forum where someone has an issue with their Crispi Evos fitting into a Meidjo binding.
