Crispi Antartic

Found a pair in good shape at the secondhand store - stoked! The 3p Annum rig just got more interesting.

Oh nice they look in great shape. interesting to see how they broke in different from mine, with creases in different places. I have a tough time with mine they are breaking right above a knuckle and digging into my foot and I can't seem to figure out why.

What size and how much? They look big, 45? 46?

Woods, instead of keeping them in the closet, you might want to try applying mink oil to the toe box. It will render the leather much more supple theyre and migh comform better to you knuckle that way? D'ont apply it everywhere cause the boot will loose some of its rigidity that way.
I live for the Telemark arc....The feeeeeeel.....I ski miles to get to a place where there is guaranteed snow to do the deal....TM

Maybe it’s our darn low-volume feet?

Score! Looks like that shop has some nice xcd gear. Eg. G3 Stinger!

What's the name of the shop :)

Those G3 Stingers are hard to find! Where were they purchased/stolen from?

runckle: Agreed - wish I had more. Stingers were a random Sierra Trading Post find from earlier this year.
